Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Maja felt the restlessness within her subside as she admired the ring. In the quiet of the bedroom, she couldn’t resist glancing at it again and again.

Maja instantly stilled, nestling into his embrace.

“Ian, Dr. Herrington is a really good guy.”

“Uh-huh.”

“He saved me once, and he’s always been so kind.”

“Uh-huh.”
