A Bloom of Thorns
With God as her witness, Holly Sullivan had always been a good girl.
Taken in by the Hoffman family at a young age, she had spent eighteen years longing for a way to repay Ronald Hoffman's kindness and the life he gave her.
However, she could not bring herself to accept the marriage proposal he put forward—not when her heart already belonged, entirely and irreversibly, to Luke Hoffman.
On the night of her eighteenth birthday, Luke—drunk and dangerously charming—lured her into bed.
From that moment on, it was not just her heart she had given away.
She gave him everything.
