    Summary

    The night Penelope learns Colin cheated on her, she makes a choice she can’t undo. By morning, twelve years of marriage are beyond saving.

    Or so they think.

    Now divorced and bound together only by their children, they’ve perfected polite distance and carefully scheduled summers. When their annual split holiday at Aubrey Hall forces them to come together for their daughter, the lines between anger and longing begin to blur.

    Summary

    NOW COMPLETE!

    Colin:
    Am I stalking my neighbor Penelope? Yes. Is that necessarily a bad thing? Surely not. Look, I realize it sounds bad, okay? But I take care of Penelope's problems whenever they arise. Just look at her ex-boyfriend, for example. He was trouble. Now he’s not around anymore. See? I solve problems. Whenever Penelope needs help, I’ll be there for her. It’s just who I am. Besides, if you aren’t obsessed with the one you love, are you even in love?

    Penelope:
    Someone is stalking me. I can’t figure out who it is, but I know they’re out there. And the worst part is, now they’re after my sweet neighbor Colin. I’ve accidentally dragged him into my dark web of true crime and sleuthing, and now he’s in danger. It’s a good thing I can keep him close. And not because of his gorgeous eyes and hard body. No, it’s because I want to keep him alive. After all, I have a stalker, and I can’t let Colin be their next victim.

    Summary

    Colin stepped closer, reckless and cruel in his need. “But you still love me. Do you not? Tell me the truth.”

    “I…” Penelope’s voice faltered. “I do.”

    “And tomorrow.” She continued, each word deliberate and devastating. “I will be married.”

    He caught her hand.

    “Then grant me one selfish request.” He said softly.

    “Let me have one night.” He whispered. “Just one… Before you belong to him.”

    -----------

    Or Colin realises too late that he loves Penelope. With that he makes the worst decision in his life, just for a few seconds of delusion.

    Because he was weak. Pathetic. Foolish.

    He could catalogue his faults with ease; they lined up obediently in his mind, each more cutting than the last.
