But at least there is champagne.
She blames the bubbly for falling into bed with Brody that night. Enemy or no, the billionaire is irresistible in a tux. But after their one-night tryst, Aria has no choice but to cut her vacation short, returning home to escape his devilish smile, vowing never to see Brody again.
Except Aria gets a surprise a few weeks later—she’s pregnant. When he learns that she’s carrying his child, Brody offers Aria the chance of a lifetime. The catch? She has to live under his roof until the baby is born.
Either they’ll kill each other in nine months. Or discover love buried beneath their hate.
'FORSAKEN TRAIL'
is the fourth book in Devney Perry's 'Runaway' series. Spoken in 'dual perspectives.'
Brody was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, never wanting for anything. Whereas Aria barely had two pennies to rub together and lived like a homeless person in a junk yard. What could these two possibly have in common?
I went into this one not having read the others in this series and was worried I wouldn't be able to connect with the storyline and characters but I had nothing to worry about, one thing I do question though is why haven't I read the others in this series!! Come on guys next time kick my rock!! This pulled me in straight away, cementing yet again why she's one of my favourite authors!! After reading this and falling under her spell I went and one clicked the others in this series!!
This series centers around a group of six misfits (Katherine, Londyn, Gemma, Karson, Clara and Aria) who as teens lived in a junk yard, now much older each have been given the task of driving this Cadillac across country which started out on the East Coast.
Forsaken Trail is about thirty year old landscaper Aria, her road trip takes her from the coast of Oregon to the desert in Arizona where she's delivering the restored 1964 Cadillac DeVille convertible to her twin sisters doorstep for the next part of the journey which will take her twin to California a place Aria never wants to set foot in again. Aria's excited to be spending the next two weeks with her sister and her nephew August.
Clara, Aria's sister works for billionaire Broderick Carmichael at Carmichael Communications they have a strong friendship which doesn't impress Aria as she can't stand the entitled, arrogant man one bit.
So when Clara falls ill the last thing Aria wanted to be doing was going as Brody's fake date to his brothers wedding party he never wanted to attend, but its all about keeping up with appearances for the time being until the company was his.
One night of pretending
Then we'd go back to what we were good at.
Hating.
That evening turned into something neither of them expected, from flirting to the back and fro banter to drinking too much champagne its whilst being under the influence that all inhibitions flew out the door as one kiss led to more.
It was only one night, she won't see Brody again until she visits her sister, its whilst Aria is on her own turf that she learns she's pregnant. From this point onwards Brody was nothing like Aria had depicted him out to be, he just sent my heart all a flutter. They were just perfect for each other.
A beautiful captivating love story, perfection at its best, from sworn enemies to lovers, throw in a surprise pregnancy and it was the perfect read to curl up with in your favourite spot.
Highly recommend 👍👍👍👍👍
You are on a roll. Another amazing review!
