the ruined - a second chance small town Romance

TROPES

Small Town; Second Chance; Spice Lessons; Grumpy/Sunshine

Have you ever tricked a man into bed with you?

Neither have I.
Wouldn’t dream of it—I’m a girl with class.

Except when it comes to my ex-boyfriend Noah.
Three years ago, I ruined any future with him and I’m done trying to win him back.
Better off. He’s Grumpy Gorgeous and I’m Sunshine Plain Jane.

With nothing left to keep me in our small town, and my best friend’s wedding to his brother looming, I make my amends. Call a truce so we don’t accidentally cause a scene during their big day.

The trick? Noah thinks my imaginary date to the wedding is my ticket to losing my V-card. And…I might have let him believe it.

A spark I thought was long gone ignites and suddenly he’s determined to prove I’m not ready. By volunteering himself to demonstrate.

It’s one dangerous game I agreed to, but it’s all I ever wanted. I only hope that when the truth comes out, we won’t be completely and unforgivably ruined.

Authors Note: Readers who may be sensitive to the "cheating trope", please take note. While there is no cheating during the story, there is a flashback and references to it between the couple in the past (a kiss only).
