Part of Seasons of Revenge
First published 2022
Abbie Keller stands outside her apartment in a Halloween costume, tears streaming down her face. Richard Bartholemew Benson just dumped her for not being "serious enough" for his law firm partnership ambitions. She had changed everything for him. She dyed her hair, dressed conservatively, even pretended to love golf. Now she calls her friends, gets drunk, dyes her hair again, and hatches a revenge scheme. She will seduce Richard's boss, the charming Damien Martinez, and humiliate Richard at the company Christmas party. The plan starts perfectly. Damien is hot, witty, and completely into her. But as their fake relationship deepens, Abbie discovers Damien's tender side. Real feelings emerge where only deception was supposed to exist. Christmas approaches, and Abbie faces an impossible choice. She can destroy Richard and potentially lose Damien, or abandon her revenge and risk her heart again.
