How did I end up living with my ex?
Imagine: I’m at the altar, about to marry Lucas, my parents’ “perfect” choice, when I see Matteo, my first love. Cue the runaway bride scene.
Desperate for a new start in New York, I learn my father has arranged housing – with Matteo. He’d completely forgotten he’d pressured me to dump Matteo five years ago.
Rebuilding our relationship is difficult. He’s hurt and resentful. It’s understandable, because I let my parents control my life.
Living in his penthouse for four months is a constant reminder of our past. The buried feelings resurface.
Beneath his cool exterior, I see the kind man I fell for, and realize the feelings are mutual.
Falling for him again is amazing, but terrifying. If my father finds out, I could be disowned, or worse, forced back to the altar with Lucas, who’s still lurking.
