Vera

I never thought I would find the one later in life, but I did. When I met Grayson, it wasn’t love at first sight. He came to my house to tell me off, but the attraction between us was strong and before I knew it, I was in love with the gray-haired, steely-eyed Colorado cowboy. Not long after, we got engaged and I couldn’t have been happier. I was retiring soon and handing over the reins of my successful development company, and I was about to start planning my wedding to the man I love. Then, in an instant, it was all tragically taken away—not by death but by another woman.

She was an ex who came back into the picture while Grayson was weak and in pain from the bullets, he took during an incident at the Montgomery ranch that he worked at.

I didn’t handle it too well when this Nurse Nightingale showed up wearing her uniform and talking about the past they had between them. I tried blackmailing her to leave.. So when Grayson found out what I had done, he ended it, tearing my world apart.

But I am Vera Brown, the woman who successfully ran her own development company with the good ol’ boys. I wasn’t awarded #1 businesswoman of the year by Megabillionaires’ magazine for nothing. I fought hard for every door to open and for every deal to make my company what it is today, and I will fight tooth and nail to win back the man I love and that is a promise.

If Leticia can get her man with her sexy blue high heels, then I’ll dust off the lucky gold ones that I had put away in my closet. Time to strut my stuff in front of Grayson to show him what he’s missing.
