She ran away to find freedom. She came home with a husband.
Six years ago, rebellious heiress Ruby St. Clair vanished. After the tragic death of her parents, she traded her diamonds for a waitress's apron and her legacy for anonymity. She was happy. She was safe.
Then she met Roman Vasquez.
One whirlwind encounter with the calculated Spanish billionaire turned her world upside down-and ended with a wedding ring she never intended to wear. Now, realizing the depth of her mistake, Ruby is on the run again.
But there's only one place left to hide: the home she swore she'd never return to, and the secrets she can no longer outrun.

Her adoptive parents, the Lopez, had given her everything - wealth, luxury, and a life of privilege. But it was all a facade. Her step-sister, Elena, had made sure she knew she didn't belong. Her constant jabs and snide comments had worn her down over the years. But she had learned to put on a brave face, to pretend like it didn't hurt. That was until tonight. She had walked into her bedroom, expecting to find her boyfriend, Alexandro, waiting for her. Instead, she found him in bed with Elena. The image was seared into her brain like a hot iron. She felt like she'd been punched in the gut. Her heart shattered into a million pieces. She stumbled out of the room, blindly making her way to the bar downstairs. She downed drink after drink, trying to numb the pain. But it only seemed to fuel her anger. She remember stumbling out of the mansion, into the cool night air. And then, everything went black. When she woke up, she was in a stranger's bed. Panic set in as she scrambled to remember what had happened. The stranger stirred beside her, and she froze. As he turned to face her, she saw the most piercing grey eyes she'd ever seen. And then, it hit her - she had seen those eyes before. They belonged to Luis Perez, the second son of the billionaire perez family. Her mind reeled as she realized the implications. Luis was to be engaged to... Elena. Would she tell Elena that she had slept with her fiancé? Or would she take it as the ultimate revenge, and keep the secret to herself? What about Luis?Complete
