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*

A Long Road Ahead

Aiden made himself comfortable on the couch, looking lazy and sloppy as ever despite his business casual attire before launching into his report.

"So get this. He was casual enough to use his office computer to offer a somewhat sketchy off-the-books deal to someone named Brann Knighton who works in the stock exchange. This one email wouldn't be enough to take him down but it's a place to start a deeper investigation."

Aaron sat up even straighter, his interest piqued. "You suspect insider trading?"

In his past life, his father had never been formally convicted. He was booted out of his own company and the scandal was hushed up so Hale Investments wouldn't lose the public's trust.

He hadn't realized how early this all began happening. Aaron didn't find enough circumstantial evidence to act until nearly three years after Keeley's death. That was due to Anomaly's help as well. If only he had found him sooner!
