My ex-boyfriend was transformed into a medusa, and he's set his eyes on me. Ten years ago, I was convinced I'd one day marry my high school boyfriend, Darrow. But when a mad scientist experimented on him and others in Petrified Woods, they were changed into monsters. My parents dragged me from town before I could make sure Darrow was okay. Not long after that, they told me he was dead. Now, I'm back in Petrified Woods to be the maid of honor at a friend's wedding. And guess who's the best man? Darrow.

It is a simple job. Sneak aboard a pirate spaceship and steal a precious artifact from the brooding, too-hot captain, Matis. Before I know it, I'll be on my way back to Earth with enough credits to cure my mom's sickness. Is it my fault I accidentally stab him?

While struggling to raise my little sister, I suddenly inherit a run-down B&B from a grandmother I didn't know existed.

I present him with our daughter, and he's stunned and overjoyed. He's still the gruff, growly demon I fell for with a soft, squishy inside he hides from the world.
