The Tie That Binds

Our marriage was meant to be one of convenience. So when did it all become so...inconvenient?




What was I supposed to do when I found out that my father's last wish was for me to marry my best friend's older brother?




I couldn't say no - if I did, the company my father and I worked so hard to build would fall into the hands of the one person that would burn it all to the ground.




Besides, I couldn't let my father down. I couldn't deny him the very last thing he ever asked of me.




Daniel and I were never meant to be so perfect together. We were never meant to fall into bed together, and we were definitely never meant to fall in love. After all - we started our marriage with an end date in sight.
