HOLY MOLY THIS IS THE DREAM READER QUESTION!!! Elise is from our Facebook crew and she sent this over a long time ago and I just found it today. GAH!!! I hope she’s already found it but if not, let’s help! Her question is wonderfully detailed and I have NO doubt we’ll be able to find it.
P.S. OMG I AM DYING to read this book. Arranged marriage, escape & starting over, falling for someone, love triangles (2!!) and so much more. This book is screaming my name.
Elise asked:
“…I am looking for a book that I read awhile back. I had actually purchased it and had it stored in my Kindle App, but for some strange reason, it’s no longer there. I have been going crazy trying to locate this series.
I can’t remember the name but I can remember what the books are about.
It starts off with this woman who has been driving for days. It’s apparent that she is running from someone. It flashes back to explain why she is running away.
At 17/18 years old, she is taken from her home, after a man pays her father to take her away. The man shows up with a doctor and his goons. The doctor performs an examination on her to confirm that she is a virgin. After her virginity is confirmed, she is then knocked out and taken to a mansion. It’s there that she is forced to sign a marriage contract and then for the next 6 years she basically lives in this mansion by herself. After the maid learns that the “master” of the mansion intends to get the young girl pregnant, she comes up with a plan to help the girl escape.
While visiting the Library, the girl manages to escape. She’s then taken to a remote location where she is given a new identity, along with money and a car. She drives for days to a small town by the sea.
She lives in a house that was given to her by the same people who set up her new identity. She starts making new friends, gets a job working at a coffee shop owned by a Hippy and eventually falls in love (with the sheriff, if I’m not mistaken).

During a convention for the coffee shop, that’s being held in the same town she ran away from, she is spotted by one of her husband’s goons. She is then chased down where she gets into a wreck and loses her memory.
While recovering her husband begins to fall in love with her (he was never in love with her because he was forced to marry her as well). They start acting like husband and wife but after an encounter with her ex-boyfriend from the small town, her memory returns.
She returns to the small town but it doesn’t feel the same. She now has feelings for her husband but also loves the boyfriend (who has fallen in love with her best friend).

She eventually goes back to her husband, from there she finds out that he works for her dying grandfather (whom she has never met). He forced her husband to marry her after feeling guilty for his son abandoning the girls mother when he found out she was pregnant. She then finds her estranged mother, starts a relationship with her and her family. Finds out that her brother was adopted into a nice family.
And everyone pretty much lives happily ever after.
If I’m not mistaken, the husband’s name is Drew, but I could be wrong.
Would you happen to know what series I’m talking about? I would be very grateful to find out.
Thank you!
