To win over the man her stepsister had been desperately scheming to marry-Connor, the richest man in town, and seek revenge. Their secret marriage came with three rules: no feelings, separate rooms, and she would leave when his true love returned. Ashley agreed, but when revenge ended, Connor refused to let her go. "There was never anyone else. You were always the one I loved."”
