Loving In Her Shadow

Synopsis

On our seventh try at discussing our wedding date, my boyfriend, Ryan Whitman, finally said yes. That night, he got so drunk that he completely blacked out. While I was helping him back to his room, I accidentally caught a heartfelt message he'd sent to a friend. It said: [Sometimes I just want to get married—to punish her for giving up on our relationship back then.] That "her"... was his first love, Emily Lane. As I stared at the phone screen fading to black, all of a sudden, everything felt utterly meaningless.
