Here's the deal. I'm 16, and I'm getting married. Super weird, I know. It was just me and my dad. We lived on a cattle ranch in Montana. He died suddenly, leaving me an orphan (which is still a thing). I'm 16 months away from being a legal adult, so I have two choices. A foster home or marry Jake Talley. My dad's foreman and really, my best friend. It's legal. It solves all my problems. Except now, I'm living with Riverbend's hottest cowboy - my husband in name only - and I'm still in high school. Where no one wants to date weird, married Ellie.

I’m known around the country as the Cowboy Princess. A reality TV star who likes champagne, expensive shoes, and cowboys. It’s a lie. For me, there has only been one cowboy...except he never wanted me. Now stardom has attracted the wrong kind of attention. A person I know is hunting me. My only choice is to go home to The King’s Land - home to Garrett, the man I could never forget. I’ve always loved Garrett, but I’ve always known he could never return that love. My childish lies drove him away.

The plan was to get divorced when I turned 18, but life got in the way. Life, my feelings...the kiss. Did I mention the kiss? Only now he won't let himself touch me. The right thing to do would be to divorce Jake. But I can't help wonder, what would it be like to be Jake's wife?
