The Invitation

e-book


A new, sexy standalone from #1 New York Times Bestseller, Vi Keeland.

The first time I met Hudson Rothschild was at a wedding. Iā€™d received an unexpected invitation to one of the swankiest venues in the city.

Hudson was a groomsman and quite possibly the most gorgeous man Iā€™d ever laid eyes on. He asked me to dance, and our chemistry was off the charts.

I knew it wasnā€™t a good idea to get involved with him, considering the wedding I was at. But our connection was intense, and I was having a great time.

Though the fun came to a screeching halt when Hudson figured out I wasnā€™t who Iā€™d said I was. You see, that unexpected invitation I received? Well, it hadnā€™t actually been addressed to meā€”it was sent to my ex-roommate whoā€™d bounced a check for two monthsā€™ rent and moved out in the middle of the night. I figured she owed me an expensive night out, but I guess, technically, I was crashing the wedding.

Once caught, I couldnā€™t get out of there fast enough. As I bolted for the door, I mightā€™ve plucked a few bottles of expensive champagne off the tables I passed, all while the gorgeous, angry groomsman was hot on my tail.

Outside, I jumped into a taxi. My heart ricocheted against my ribs as we drove down the blockā€”but at least Iā€™d escaped unscathed.

Or so I thought.

Until I realized Iā€™d left my cell phone behind at the table.

Take one guess who found it?

This is the crazy story of how Hudson Rothschild and I met. But trust me, itā€™s only the tip of the iceberg.
