The day the man I'd lived with for twelve years married someone else, I canceled my flight home. I was already at the gate at O'Hare, and my flight to Savannah was boarding when my front door camera showed me something I could never have imagined—a wedding in my own backyard.
Grant was standing beneath the string lights I had hung and wearing the suit I had chosen for him. Beside him was Piper, his late wife's sister, wearing my mother's handmade wedding dress after brutally cutting it apart.
For twelve years, I had built a home, supported Grant's family, paid the bills, helped raise his daughter, and waited for the marriage he always promised would happen someday. Yet he had never considered me his real family.
Now he had married another woman in the home I paid for.
Instead of confronting them, I walked away.
But Grant and his new wife don't realize that the woman who spent twelve years cleaning up their problems is finally done. With the house, money, property records, debts, and secrets all on the line, June is ready to take back everything that belongs to her—and rebuild a life without the people who took her loyalty for granted.
