A Pawn Turned Bride

April Cox has loved Paul Cooper for years and believed herself the luckiest woman alive under his constant affection. But everything shatters when she discovers he only pushed her toward Owen Cook—the heir to the Duke—to sabotage Owen's engagement to his beloved, Beth Dean. Realizing she's nothing but a pawn to make Beth jealous, April's heart turns cold. Out of despair and defiance, she and Owen turn their act into reality and marry, leaving Paul to face his regret too late.
