Description: Fleeing a looming marriage to a terrifying man, Abby meets a mysterious stranger who makes her a startling proposition that will either save her, or leave her mired in scandal.

She has put herself in extreme danger and is saved by a complete stranger who is also running, if you may, from his future. Can they save each other from ill-fated fortune or must they face an unwanted future they don’t want?
