Story

The story

Aspen Anderson is bound to Brandon Fuller in an arranged marriage, yet he has escaped ninety-nine times, leaving her humiliated at a beach and on a stage. When she finally brings her wedding dress to him, she overhears him promise his true love, Poppy Taylor, a real wedding in seven days while he plans only a fake ceremony for her, blaming her for his older sister Holly Fuller's death. Frozen, Aspen calls her mother and asks for a new groom, naming Samuel Newton.

Brandon's cruelty continues: he smashes a glass against her cheek, has his bodyguards slap her for striking Poppy at the bridal shop, and later chokes her in her hospital bed, demanding to know where Poppy has gone. Nine years earlier, after Holly died in a fire, Aspen was suspected because she lacked an alibi, and Brandon has refused to believe her since.

With the wedding seven days away and a new groom chosen, Aspen must decide how much more she will endure before the debts of the past are finally repaid.

Opening excerpt

The first time, I was left alone at the beach as I waited for the whole night.

The second time, he switched places with a homeless man and left me alone on the stage in humiliation.

Brandon finally gave in on the 99th time.

However, when I went to him with my wedding dress in my arms, I overheard his conversation with his friends.
