Shattered Vows,The Heiress They Tried to BuryChapter 1

On the day of my wedding, my fiancé said he had a surprise for me.

He blindfolded me. Moments later, I lost consciousness.

When I woke, I was in a village I'd never seen before, deep in the mountains. A hulking brute of a man told me he was my husband. There was a three-year-old boy, too, clinging to my legs, begging me to hold him.

I was beaten into five miscarriages. Locked in the house day after day. One wrong look, one wrong word, and the fists came down. My mother-in-law was no better, obsessed with getting a grandson, treating me like a broodmare who'd failed her only purpose.

Three years. Three years, and my body was a map of scars. I'd given up fighting. I'd given up hoping. I was choking down folk remedies and bitter herbal concoctions, doing everything I could to carry a boy to term, because a son was the only thing that might keep me alive.

Then a helicopter descended onto the hilltop.

And out stepped my best friend and my fiancé, arm in arm.

Rebecca Fletcher. Jacob Delgado. Walking toward me like they were strolling through a garden party.
