My Ex's Brother

The heroine looks back toward the glass conservatory while the tall man waits beside her.

I looked back once. Through the glass, Alistair had not moved, and his face had already forgotten me.

For three years a whole room had looked at me. Rory was the first person who looked and saw. That was the crack, and I could not unsee it.

Synopsis

My future husband, Alistair, shows me off like a prize. He smiles at another woman. Then he tells me to smile too. I tell myself it is fine. It is not. His brother, Rory, is the only one who sees me. He does not grab my arm. He just stays. When my aunt needs help, Rory makes an offer. Marry him for six months. It will save her. It may save me. I tell myself it is just a deal. His calm care feels safe. It also feels like a trap. I will not be a wife on paper. Not even for him.
