My father's lawyer called at nine in the morning. His voice carried the particular smoothness of a man paid to deliver bad news politely.

  • ACCIDENTALLY YOURS FOREVER   Through the Screen

    Daniel's PovMy father's lawyer called at nine in the morning. His voice carried the particular smoothness of a man paid to deliver bad news politely."Richard wants this resolved quickly," he said. "The unfortunate marriage, specifically.""It's not unfortunate. It's legal.""Your father's exact words were unfortunate, ill-considered, and beneath the family name." A pause, papers rustling somewhere on his end. "He's prepared to offer a settlement for an expedited annulment. Generous terms for the woman involved.""There's a pregnancy now."Silence stretched long on the other end."Richard will want to discuss that directly.""Tell him I said no." I hung up before the lawyer could respond, my jaw already aching from how hard I'd clenched it through the entire call.James knocked twic

  • ACCIDENTALLY YOURS FOREVER   Pages of Her 

    Rosa's PovThe library sat at the end of the hallway I'd never bothered exploring. Floor-to-ceiling shelves, a rolling ladder, the kind of room that existed in movies more than real apartments.I wandered in around two in the afternoon with nothing better to do. Books lined every wall, mostly business titles, biographies of men who built empires. Boring, predictable, exactly what I'd expect from a man who treated feelings like a liability.A leather-bound book sat tucked behind a row of finance texts on the lowest shelf. I pulled it out without thinking much about it. The cover had no title. Just worn leather, soft from years of handling, a small dent across the spine like it had been dropped a hundred times and picked back up just as many.I opened it.My own face stared back at me.Page after page. My jaw, my hands, the curve of

  • ACCIDENTALLY YOURS FOREVER   The Incubator 

    Daniel's PovThe hotel lobby buzzed with the usual evening traffic when I walked through it. Staff nodded as I passed, the way they always did, polite and practiced and careful never to look at me too long.I caught two of them near the concierge desk, heads bent close together."Heard she was some kind of translator before this. No money, no family, nothing.""Married him after two weeks. Two weeks.""I heard she's pregnant already.""Of course she is."I stopped walking. Both women froze the second they noticed me standing there. One went pale immediately. The other dropped her eyes to the floor like that might erase the last thirty seconds."Mr Gosling.""Carry on," I said, and kept walking, jaw tight the entire way to the elevator.James caught up to me on the executive floor, two coffees in hand. He handed one over without asking if I wanted it."You heard them," he said."I heard them.""It's everywhere now, Daniel. Staff, board members, half the city apparently." He fell into s

  • ACCIDENTALLY YOURS FOREVER   For the Baby 

    Rosa's PovThe kitchen smelled like coffee when I walked in. Daniel sat at the counter, already dressed for the office. His tie was knotted tight, his jacket on, a folder open in front of him."Morning," I said, reaching for a mug."Morning.""Sleep okay?""Fine."I poured coffee I wasn't supposed to be drinking anymore, then remembered, then poured it down the sink instead. He watched the whole thing without comment."There's tea in the pantry," he said. "Greta got the caffeine-free kind.""Thoughtful.""It's for the baby."I set the mug down harder than necessary. "Right. For the baby. Of course.""What's that supposed to mean?""Nothing." I grabbed the tea bag. "How was your night?""Busy.""Anything interesting happen?""Not particularly."I waited for more. Nothing came. He closed the folder, slid it into his bag, checked his watch like the room itself was costing him money."I have an early call," he said. "I won't be back for dinner.""Daniel.""There's money on the counter for

  • ACCIDENTALLY YOURS FOREVER   BURNT PAGE

    Daniel's PovFourteen hours. That was the day, start to finish, back-to-back meetings, a deal in Singapore that needed handling at three in the morning my time.The elevator opened onto something different.Flowers sat in a vase on the entry table that had been empty since I moved in. White and yellow, fresh enough that water still clung to the glass. The air smelled like garlic, like something warm had been cooking hours ago and hadn't fully faded yet.I stood there a moment longer than I should have."You're late." Greta appeared from the kitchen, a stack of mail in her hands."Singapore ran long.""Rosa's in her room." She set the mail down on the counter. "She made dinner. Saved you a plate, covered it twice so it wouldn't dry out.""I already ate.""Did you.""Greta.""I'm just making an observation, Mr. Gosling." She didn't smile, but something close to it tugged at her mouth. "The flowers were her idea too. Said the place needed color.""It's fine the way it is.""If you say so

  • ACCIDENTALLY YOURS FOREVER   THE SOUND THROUGH THE WALL

    Rosa’s PovOne suitcase sat by the door. That was everything I owned that still mattered.The housekeeper waited near the elevator with her hands folded. Older woman, gray hair pulled back, a uniform pressed so sharp it looked painful."Mrs Gosling?""Rosa is fine.""I'm Greta." She didn't smile, didn't frown either. "Mr. Gosling asked me to show you to your room.""My room.""Down the hall from his." Greta's eyes flicked to my suitcase, then back to my face. "Separate.""Of course it's separate."She led me past white marble floors, past a wall of windows showing half of Manhattan glittering below us, past a kitchen that looked like it had never once been used for actual cooking."This is yours." Greta opened a door onto a room bigger than Sophie's entire apartment. Cream walls. A bed that could fit four people. Not one personal item anywhere."It's beautiful," I said, because it was, and because I didn't know what else to say standing in a stranger's house that was apparently also m
