Synopsis
Moving to my fiance Adam's hometown was supposed to be an adventure, the beginning of our life together. Instead, I'm met by his unwelcoming family and an old friend who wants more than friendship from Adam. Adam swears Millie is just a friend, like a little sister to him. That their feelings for each other are completely platonic. I just wonder if she believes this. To his family and friends, I'm the outsider standing in the way of Adam and Millie's destined love story. And when Adam proves repeatedly that he will choose Millie over me? I decide to choose myself and leave. There is nothing like hard work to distract you from a broken heart, and so I throw myself into fixing up my grandmother's derelict house and helping in my family's struggling restaurant. But now Adam is back. And he says he's going to prove to me I'm the one he wants. My aunt and uncle are clearly softening towards him. My cousin wants to help me hide his body. He let me down once. Dare I trust him with my heart again?
