“Did you do it?” Shaylee smiles as I prop up my phone on a stand.
I stare at Shaylee and Faye on FaceTime. “Yes, I’m at my soon to be husband’s home.”
My stomach twists in knots.
“I can’t believe you went through with the process of marrying a stranger.” Faye shakes her head.

“Don’t keep us in suspense. We want to look him up,” Shaylee urges.

“She’s...”

Shaylee's eyebrows shoot up in surprise. "But this happened eleven years ago."
I sink onto the stool, stunned. "What?"
