“"If you still want to get married, why not marry me?" Vanessa has just walked away from the man who left her waiting at the registry office. The voice on the phone belongs to Julian Ashford-her ex's older brother. She says yes. She expects a practical marriage and a chance to start over. She doesn't expect Julian to remember the things she likes, defend the work she thought no one valued, or look at her as though he has been waiting for this marriage far longer than she has. Then her ex decides he wants her back.”
