That’s when I found another bride’s “something old". Stitched into the lining of a fabulously feathered design was the loveliest message I’d ever read: Thank you for making all of my dreams come true.

Elas o chamavam de papai Mack. Não, sério, o nome dele era Mack, diminutivo de Mackenzie. O homem de todas as mulheres. Esse apelido era perfeito, não? Na escola particular em que eu ensinava, Mack Morrison era exatamente isso: o único homem em um mar de mulheres. Todo mundo queria aquele gostoso e solteiro pai de um lindo garotinho.

The last thing Dorian Vanderbilt expected was to find me painting in my crop top when he returned to the mansion he hadn’t inhabited in years.

I learned that lesson when my aunt and the billionaire she married died unexpectedly while traveling. I’d been living with them, and just like that, my life was turned on its axis.

When the board of directors of my company mandated that I go to a wellness facility in small-town Maine to recharge, that shouldn’t have included using a ladder to sneak out of the bedroom window at night and going to the local bar.

An assistant on the upcoming tour for one of America’s most famous rock bands. Pretty exciting opportunity for a twenty-two-year-old, just out of college. Not surprisingly, I bombed the interview.
