Desperate Measures

Desperate measures are what you take when you have nothing left to lose

Samantha

My life hasn't exactly turned out the way I thought it would. I wanted the fairytale wedding, what I got was my parents pushing me down the aisle toward lawfully wedded hell. And when I saw the man of my misery waiting at the end of the long, white aisle, I kind of lost it and did what any smart woman would do. I ran as if my life depended on itright into the arms of a man I could easily come to love.

There's too much pain in my past. I can't trust myself, let alone her, but I have no choice. My daughter needs a mother, and I need someone to help raise her when I'm working. This will be a fake marriage, an arrangement in name only. The only problem is, I want more from her than I am willing to give of myself. It's not until I almost lose her that I realize I can't live without her, but I may be too late.
