A Prince of Smoke and Mirrors (Billionaire Sanctuary: The Heir #1)

1. speak now

speak now

when the preacher says, “speak now,”

and someone actually speaks,

when a woman in a flirty little sundress

steps out of the crowd and announces to the church that she is the one

the groom should be with,

then the story follows the plucky girl who stood up for love

and convinced the guy to meet her by the back door,

to run away with her.

the story ignores the bride who’s left

shaking at the altar

in her confection of a dress

she’d bought with her own money

she’d saved,

on the day she’d spent hundreds of hours

preparing every detail for, watching

the man she loved,

who was her whole heart and her whole life for six years, walk away.
