The Runaway

When Pepper Woods left Hideaway Springs nearly a decade ago, it was good riddance.The polished homecoming queen and class president was far too 'city girl' for my likes, anyway.

I barely even noticed when she got engaged to the President's son.

Now, she's back in town. And she's just walked into my father's inn, with a veil tucked under her arm.

I should walk away. I've got hockey practice in an hour and she's the last person I need distracting me. So why does she wind up pressed against me on the back of my motorcycle?

And how have I ended up as her fake fiancé?
