Bec Darden was a high-powered attorney who had spent her entire adult life building a fearsome reputation both in the courtroom and the boardroom. But once upon a time, she was also a naรฏve and romanticโaka idioticโsoul whoโd married her high school sweetheart on a whim after graduating. Heโd been weeks away from deployment and sheโd been heading off to college in the fall. No surprise, her marriage had been short-lived. Explosive. Miserable. And incredibly, incredibly short-lived. But now Luke Pearson was back in her life and with the worst possible news. Her marriage, the one sheโd almost immediately regretted, and the subsequent divorce sheโd paid through the teeth for in college by waiting tables, picking up extra shifts, and basically not sleeping hadnโt happened. As in she was still freaking married. Luke had been sexy in high school, but he was even hotter as a grown man and his reappearance in her life hadnโt done anything to dampen the attraction she felt for him. But Bec had already learned that sex wasnโt everything. One broken heart was enough, and she wasnโt in the market to give Luke another chance at shattering her all over again. He needed to sign the divorce papers sheโd drafted and leave her to her life. Except . . . what did they say about best laid plans? Because Luke wouldnโt sign.
