Page 48 of Dirty Secret Love

Sutton:

You know what? I’m calling off my engagement and recruiting Bach. He might be more believable as my fiancé—because, as you put it, we’re both nerdy and studious.

River:

Where are you getting all this?

Sutton:

I have my sources.

River:

What if your sources are lying?

Sutton:

My sources would never lie and we’re officially over. I’m proposing this fake engagement to Bach.

River:

Darling, we can fix this.

Sutton:

Really? How? Because learning that you’ve been trying to pimp me out has me wanting to commit a crime—the murderous kind.

River:

Is that why your second pen name is for mystery thriller so you can kill those you hate in real life?

Sutton:

Yes, how many times do you think I’ve killed my family?

River:

You’re ruthless.

Sutton:

No, I believe that killing through fiction is better than spending a lifetime in jail :wink: emoji

River:

You’re kidding, right?

Sutton:

You’ll never know. If I were you, I would move back to the ranch, but if you choose to come to my place, I would stay awake all night.

River:

That can be arranged.

Sutton:

Really, how?
