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 Better Plan

October 2017, in another life

The man Lacy knew as Mr. Gray was getting very annoyed with his accomplice. In the nearly four years they had been working together to replace Keeley Hale, very little progress had been made. He couldn't understand it.

She couldn't bear Aaron any children, which was practically a prerequisite for being a high society wife. She brought no financial benefits to the marriage. Rumors had been running rampant that he wasn't pleased with his wife. So why hadn't he divorced her yet?

He needed Lacy to take that woman's place so he could control Aaron through her. Then he would take away everything Alistair, Aaron, and all of the Hales ever worked for.

She was such an idiot. How could she possibly think he was on her side? He was on his own side—she was nothing but a tool he would use to destroy the Hale family permanently. It was the least he could do after all they had made him suffer.
