Alice Monroe was a good person who was about to do a very bad thing. A professional dancer at twenty-four, Alice had worked tirelessly for years to achieve perfection in all areas of her life. She had the perfect boyfriend, the perfect dream job in her pocket, as well as the unfortunate, naïve belief that perfection is built to last. All it took was one night to tear down everything Alice had built for herself until she was left single, jobless, and her heart stained with betrayal.

Little did she know that this was just the beginning of her twist of fate nightmare. Ethan Black is waiting for her in Chicago as a perfect stranger, but soon after he and Alice meet, it's impossible for either of them to deny that they're destined to be much more. The only problem? Ethan's engaged to be wed to her sister. STORY IS COMPLETE
