The Best Luck

Well, that wasn't how it was supposed to go.

Not at all!

Life has just not turned out the way Aubree McCourt had planned it! She's not famous, or rich, or even really respected anymore-not since her husband cheated on her with practically every woman in their small Tennessee town, not since he left her and their two kids. Abandoned them, actually, and everyone knows it. Everyone can see that she's not the woman they thought she was, and Aubree sees it, too.

She's trying, though, and she doesn't need anyone's pity. Especially not from Wyatt Taylor. After all, his daughter was one of the women that her husband ran around with. One of the many. It doesn't matter how handsome Wyatt is, or how nice. How generous, how funny. How good he looks without his shirt on...oh, my word. It is a sight to behold.

It doesn't matter how sparks seem to fly between them, how sweet he is to her children, how he gets along with everyone in her family, how he's always there when she needs him.

Because all Aubree really needs is to find her missing husband-ex-husband, and make him pay for what he's done. She's perfectly capable of fixing her life all by herself. Alone.

Sure, alone. Lonely. But if Wyatt is there, maybe she doesn't have to be. Maybe he's just what she's been needing-and she's what he needs, too. Maybe this is how it's supposed to go, how things should have been all along.

And maybe those sparks between them will light a pretty big fire...
