Synopsis

Alani LaBelle has it all. A great job, amazing friends, and a loving fiancƩ. Traveling to Las Vegas for her bachelorette party, she never expects to come across someone who rocks her world the way Ryan Kraft does. Though they only share a few hours together, the connection she feels with him is undeniable. Thinking that her feelings for him may be old feet she brushes it off and attempts to focus on her fiancƩ and their impending nuptials.

Heartbroken by her fiancƩ only days before their wedding, she finds herself needing to escape, needing to hide from reality. Though Alani knows that Ryan lives in Grand Forks, North Dakota, she never thought their paths would cross again while she is there.

Their friendship changes to something more with a good night kiss. Needing to be with Ryan, she leaves her old life in New Jersey behind and moves halfway across the country. As they journey together in a new relationship Alani has to adapt to life in a new city, new job, as well as dealing with Ryan’s ex-girlfriend Stephanie, who is waiting for the perfect moment to get Ryan back.

But will her fiancĆ© let Alani walk away from him without a fight? Will Alani’s love for Ryan be enough for her to stay with him through turmoil? Or will Stephanie’s secret tear them apart?

Excerpt

ā€œAlly baby please. I f* up but please, I can do better. Please forgive me.ā€ He begged

ā€œMarco, there is nothing between us anymore. I’m done. We are done. Shouldn’t you be off with Trish somewhere?ā€ Her name was like bile in my mouth.

ā€œAlly it’s not like that with her, I was just scared.ā€ I raised my hand to stop him; I didn’t want to go through this with him all over again.

ā€œStop. Just Stop. There is nothing between us anymore Marco, please just leave.ā€ I swallowed back any tears that were threatening to show. Stepping back I closed the door and leaned my back on it, slowly sliding down to the ground. Inhaling deep I tried to calm my nerves and heard the flower arrangement being placed on the ground as Marco spoke.

ā€œI know you can still hear me Ally, and I want you to know that I’ll never give up on us. Never! You hear me? I f* up. I know I did but I love you.ā€ As the tears dripped from my eyes I wiped them away as quickly as I could. I wasn’t crying because I was sad. I was just so tired of repeating the past five years in my head and seeing it end like this.

ā€œMarco, please just leave me alone.ā€ I shouted from behind the door

ā€œI’ll always fight for you. I’ll find a way to make you mine again. Mark my words Alani, you will spend the rest of your life with me.ā€
