This is not your typical happily ever after... 

Lauren Brooks wants to do three things: Escape the small town she grew 
up in, get accepted to her dream school in Chicago, and graduate 
without drowning in debt. Now she's working her ass off to do just 
that. 

With a full course load and a waitressing job at one of the hottest 
night clubs in Chicago, she does not have time for distractions;namely 
ones who only want to get into her pants. She's been burned before. 
Only a fool goes for a second round... With just two semesters left 
until graduation, everything's on track. 

Until she meets Cal. Enter distraction. 

At six-foot-two, with ebony hair, deep grey eyes, and a smile that 
could only hide an agenda, she knows he's trouble. And for the first 
time in her life, a little trouble might be just what she needs. 

No. What she wants. 

It isn't like she'd ever marry the guy. 
Until she does. 

What she thinks will be her happily ever after, is only the beginning. 
Cal has a secret. One that makes loving him come with a price, and 
being his wife cost more than she bargained for.

Her past brought us together, but it was mine that threatened to tear us apart. We were two people who couldn't have been more different. She was the good girl; I was the bad boy. I was everything she shouldn't have wanted. And she was everything I didn't know I needed. I was broken. She was perfect. She wasn't like the other girls. She intrigued me. Captivated me. When I first saw her across the room, I knew I had to talk to her. Needed to be near her. It's why I followed her when she left suddenly, abandoning her friends and leaving the party to go outside. She was too quick for me to keep up, though when her screams tore through the night air, I broke into a sprint, needing to save her. ---------- We were two people bonded in tragedy.
