Run, Girl (If You Can)

Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot. [No, she did not win the lottery!] At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over backward to fit into his world. One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign. A divorce paper... "She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility." That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath. Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story. Not!] For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self. A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband. Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs. Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her? Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more... Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story. *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

First Day

September 2017

"Mommy, do we have to go to school? I want to stay with you," Violet said with a tragic pout on her face.

It was their first day of preschool and the day Keeley would finally be going to work at a privately funded research lab called the Department of Medical Advancement, or DOMA for short. Aaron was able to get her in by offering a very large donation on the condition that she would be able to use the facility to continue her cystic fibrosis research.

She really hoped that nobody but the director knew how she got in because she didn't want to be looked at strangely. It would be so awkward to be known as the woman who only worked there because she had a rich husband.

"Mommy has to go to work, Vi. We talked about this, remember? You get to stay here and play with Kaleb and meet new friends for a while. I'll come pick you up at three and then you can tell me all about what you did and we can bake cookies, okay?"
