He broke her heart. Now he's back with the world's craziest proposal.

Jackson Lebak is happy as a small-time college football coach until his eccentric grandmother dangles a billion-dollar shoe company as inheritance. The catch? He has to get married before she dies. He doesn't know a single woman he could even imagine such a future with—except the one whose heart he broke seven years ago.

Ruth Koopman is working toward her Ph.D. and drowning in student debt. When she runs into her old college flame at the coffee shop, she's definitely not thrilled. He'd broken her heart into so many pieces, she's still picking them up seven years later.

Then Jackson shows up at her door and proposes marriage. When she asks him why the sudden rush to the altar, he tells her it's a secret he can't share. No explanation, no details—just trust him.

Any sane woman would slam the door in his face. But Ruth's heart has never been particularly logical when it comes to Jackson Lebak.
