Giselle     Alone.   That's all I'll ever be.   It was stupid of me to think otherwise.   The two people I love—and who I thought loved me back—discovered who I really am.   And what I do.   Their anger isn't something I'll soon forget.   But that part of my life is over, and it's time to move on.   Alone.

With my wonderful interlude over--it's back to real life.   Until it isn't.   There's more than one billionaire standing in my way--and yes, that's a big problem.   And I don't know how to get out of the predicament I've found myself in.   One of them wants an heir.   And the other one just wants--me.   They've left this impossible decision in my hands.   What do you do when there's no easy choice?

  Giselle   It's difficult to forget when you're surrounded by constant reminders.   Especially when those reminders come in the form of two, handsome, irresistible billionaires.   But, I do my best to tune them out.   Too bad they're intent on staying in my life—even if it's not in my bed.   Lonely and trapped, I turn to someone I never thought I would.   But, even with all the permission in the world—it still feels wrong.   Until it doesn't.

Just when I think the two men I'm in love with are lost to me forever--they reemerge.   With a vengeance.   The tug-of-war they create soon turns into a one-month arrangement.   That I still can't believe I agree to.   But after the thirty days are up, I'll be back to my old life and my old job.   Or at least that is what's supposed to happen.

If I can't have the man—or men—that I want, then I'll enjoy someone else, completely.   Even if it's just so he can get rid of his frustration.   Because I have an itch that needs scratching, too.   In real life, we make an unlikely pair.   But under the sheets—we make pure fire.   And after my—duty is over, and life goes back to normal—whatever that is, a new frustration—or two—re-enter my life.   And I have no idea what to do.

I knew my past would eventually catch up with me.   I just hoped for more time.   With my daughter.   With Stefan.   With Carlo.   With my friends.   The clock is ticking, and I need to run before it's too late.   But first, I'm going to allow myself one last--hurrah before leaving this all behind.

After learning a painful secret--my feelings of disappointment and betrayal overwhelm me.   I'm done with this whole--situation.   Not that I actually agreed to it in the first place.   Still, they opened my world in ways I never dreamed possible.   Will I ever be able to forgive--and move on with these men I love?

I don't know why I'm surprised.   I always knew my past would one day come back to haunt me.   And now that it's happened--there's only one thing to do.   Leave.   But, that's easier said than done.   Especially when Carlo & Stefan Sovrano are watching your every move.

I'm living with a broken heart. And now I'm going to break it again. By leaving. Everyone. And everything. It's the only way to keep those I love—safe. But will I be able to survive this heartache?

I'm gone. Running from the only man in the world who can truly destroy me. And my family. My heart breaks whenever I think of everything I left behind. And everyone. But it had to be done. Or I'd risk their lives, too. The only question is—can I stay gone? And if so, for how long?

He needs an heir. And he'll do anything to make sure that happens. Will he ever let me go? The longer I stay, the more broken my soul is. Day after day of misery. Heartbreak. Until I finally see the light—only to be shrouded back into an all too familiar darkness.

As the division between us grows,   I wonder if we'll ever be the same again.   But I don't have to wonder for long.   Because I have to go.   Leave.   Now.   Before my past takes everything away.   I can't let that happen.

Will the Queen find a way out?     Captured and afraid.   But I still need to keep my head in the game.   And my heart out.   I can't think about what could have been.   Only what has to be.   For now.   Until I can find a sliver of light in all of this darkness.   And trust me.   I'll find it.   I know I will.
