A Promise Worth Breaking
by Micah Chaplin
Category: Fiction

Sariana Colter is a self-declared career woman. She's successful, happy, and far from the sleepy Texas town she worked so valiantly to escape. Her life is right on track until her mother announces she is terminally ill. Desperate to grant her mother's dying wish, Sariana suddenly finds herself seeking that which she has been running from for years: commitment and marriage. Gavin Matthews, a man from Sariana's past, resurfaces with wishes of his own. Out of loneliness and desire for attachment to someone, Gavin agrees to enter a marriage of convenience to Sari with the stipulation that they will divorce after Sari's mother passes. Very quickly, however, hearts get involved-or rather, one heart gets involved. Will there be a broken heart or a broken promise?
