Overview:

Ninety days.

That’s all the time I have to prove to the only woman I’ll ever love that our divorce was a mistake.

Eloise is from a wealthy French family and about to marry the man her parents have always wanted for their eldest daughter. I’m a working-class boy from Ohio and a key defenseman for the Seattle Rogues hockey team.

On paper, our love shouldn’t work, and in reality, fate dealt our marriage a difficult hand.

With zero contact from her for years, I all but gave up on winning Eloise back until, one day, I find out that she’s remarrying, and the next day, I’m boarding a plane to France.

All I have from her sister is a zip code and the time when I’ll lose my girl forever. But I have to try. I know she still loves me, and even if we can never have children, living our lives apart will be the worst kind of loneliness.

From the day we met during our freshman year of college, I’ve been her American bad boy with a dirty mouth in bed and dimples that make her knees go weak.

All I need to do is stop the wedding, bring her back to Seattle, and hope that she’ll give me a second chance after we lost our way the first time around.

And I’ll do anything to make that happen.
