She forgot something on the way to the courthouse . . .

Sophia Abella has a good life, even if she is a little stuck. Not quite single, not quite married, she keeps men at a safe distance. But when her Marine husband returns to town and takes the job of chief of police, it might finally be time to get that paper work done once and for all. After all, most of her family already thinks she's divorced.

They're not actually, in the fullest sense of the word . . . divorced.

Years ago, Riley Jacobs chose the Marine Corps over his wife and has regretted his decision every day since. But once a Marine always a Marine, and he'll use every tactical advantage he has to get Sophia to realize that she's the only one for him.

Love and marriage . . . take two.
