Ashley felt her heart plummet into the depths of despair.

She had toyed with the idea of being honest, but circumstances had backed her into a corner.

If she failed to marry Kristian, she would tumble back into her own living

The sound of the water glass shattering against the hard floor punctuated the room as it slipped from Ashley's
