That is, blissfully out of my life and nowhere near our little country town. But in my weakest moment, he arrived like some knight in shining armour. One I never wanted or asked for. I should have run him down with my wheelchair. But I didn’t. I got in his car. And now I have to see his beautiful damn face every damn day.

Doctor Damien Farrow is a douchebag. Sure, he’s sexy as sin with his armful of tattoos and Clark Kent vibes. But after a lifetime of douchebags, my celibacy vow is safe with him. Which makes him the ideal fake date I need on my arm when I face my high school sweetheart—and the back-stabbing woman he dumped me for.

Getting pregnant then realizing your baby daddy is a cheating, lying, scumbag? That happened. But then Abel James walks into my life. One hot look from the broad-shouldered cowboy and I’m ready for all the sexy fun I won’t be having once I start showing. Only one problem. He’s my father’s best friend and almost twenty years older than me. He’s off limits. I’m completely forbidden. Even if the spark between us is undeniable. So I get on a plane to Australia. One last trip to visit friends and work on their cattle station before I come home and face my future as a single mom.

The other women watch me with envy, but they know nothing of the beatings and punishments I endure. He hides them with a veil. One I must wear until I give him a son.

My only hope are the three men who know the evil of my attacker. If I make it through this, we can’t fail again. A murderer needs to be found. Caleb needs to pay for what he did to me. He has another woman held hostage, bound, and gagged. But she’s not the only one. There are others who will befall the same fate as me if Caleb and his friends aren’t stopped.

I’ve wanted to be a big city doctor my entire life. I studied hard. Got into Harvard. Then moved across the other side of the country, leaving my family’s small-town ranch and bull riding school behind. I’ve hated every moment since. My older sister’s wedding is the perfect excuse for an extended trip back home.

The only empty bed on the entire ranch is in the cowboys’ cabins.

When I walked in on my girlfriend screwing another guy, I never would have thought I’d be sitting at their wedding less than six months later.

Isabel hates Christmas. She’s got a Christmas disaster for each of her 25 years.
