About Finally Yours

They say your forties are the new twenties.

Maybe that would be true if my ex-husband hadn’t turned out to be a lying, cheating, stealing ass who left me with nothing except my pride.

And it’s that pride that should keep me from accepting Phillip Conrad’s sexy, sinful, and way too cocky offer to pay off the debt I owe him.

I should walk away. I should slap him. Hell, I should tell him exactly where he can shove his offer. But I don’t.

All the signs that Daniel was a dishonest swindler siphoning millions of dollars from his client’s investments had been there for most of our marriage. I’d chosen to ignore them. Just as I’d chosen to ignore his string of girlfriends. Fortunately, it didn’t make me complicit in the crime. Just an idiot.

An idiot who at forty-one was trying—and clearly failing—to start her life over.

How could anyone start their life over when
