The Reason Why

With a scandalous divorce battle, multi-millionaire Kyle Elliot decided to move out of the limelight. Betrayed by the woman he thought he loved, he decided to escape a different environment and a fake identity. Thanks to his best friend and secretary, Luke Bailey, everything was set. Kyle thought his exile would be nothing but boredom and a lot of reflection on his past. He never expected to find something that may ultimately change his life. To Lenna Michel, Kyle was another new face in town until she knew whom he pretended to be related. It was challenging to find the right person to confide in her problem in a town where everyone knew anyone. She struggled to get out of a five-year relationship. Yet she couldn’t leave him without losing someone precious. Both at the peak of their worst, fate took a stand and gave them a chance to fight back. But they didn’t expect to find love with it.

I had been itching to ask how it happened, but it was best to know everything simultaneously, as Lenna did. I wouldn’t be able to keep the truth from her too long—a trait that had somehow grown without my knowledge.

Touching down on Montana soil, we were all quick on our feet in getting out of the airport. I called Archie and informed him of our arrival. Per his words, he had asked Ronald Leighton, the owner of the bakeshop he and Lenna worked, to pick us up.
