I've spent my entire life fighting tooth and nail to get away from the future my parents want for me. Some may think I'm ungrateful, but others with an adventurous heart will understand.

I want simple instead of diamonds.

I want true love instead of a prestigious last name.

I want adventure instead of hanging on the arm of a business man who dangles me around like I'm a mere accessory.

The man my parents have very carefully picked out for me is used to getting his way, and he wants me to be his wife. But after meeting Emmett Lanning, who strokes my streak of adventure with the devilish smirk he sends my way, I'm not so sure he'll get it.
