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*

Fake Date

"You want me to what?" Aiden asked his boss doubtfully over the phone.

"You said your neighbor is an actress. I am in need of her services tonight for an event. All she has to do is smile, nod, and look pretty on my arm and I'll give her $5,000 for her trouble," Aaron said loftily.

"Do you know which neighbor I was talking about?! She's Keeley's roommate! What if she finds out?"

"I'll have her sign a nondisclosure agreement and threaten to sue. Simple."

Aiden ran a hand through his copper hair with exasperation. "You're seriously going to pay someone else to be your date? Why not just ask Keeley?"

Aaron's voice was cold. "She has a paper to write. She'd say no."

He sighed. There was no reasoning with this ice block. He was sure Jennica would jump at the chance for a paid acting gig but still…this was risky.

"I'll ask her and call you back."
