PROLOGUE
"Just give up,
already!" Sarah mumbled to herself as she scanned the latest
in a series of e-mails from her friend, Cass. Could David not see he
was wasting his time trying to find her? It was over. Sarah had
moved on. Her new life was a world away from the man she had loved
and had at one time believed loved her to distraction, a man she
might even have committed to for life. Yet here was her
best friend warning her yet again that David continued to actively search for her, obsessively hounding her friends in an attempt to obtain information on her whereabouts. Sarah was determined never to allow that to happen, not in this lifetime.

In light of the
circumstances, their split had been acrimonious, to say the least.
Seven months into their relationship, Sarah had discovered David had
been seeing a woman he had at one time been close with but, according
to him, had not seen in years. As with most cheaters, once he was
caught, he had begged her forgiveness and sworn up and down it would
never happen again.
David
hailed from several generations of wealthy commerce giants and
bragged unabashedly that, as an only child, he always got what he
wanted. Unfortunately for Sarah, that included her. Being from
privilege, he felt entitled to an ‘occasional misstep,’ and
believed Sarah should simply let it go and move on.
When
David informed his parents of their breakup, his mother had invited
Sarah to tea, and in her sweet-as-honey voice, explained that it was
Sarah’s responsibility to forgive him; after all, she might one
day become his loyal and dutiful wife. Sarah made it equally clear
to her, and later to David, that her motto was ‘once a cheater,
always a cheater’ and there would be no second chance.
As a consequence of his
betrayal, Sarah’s self-esteem had taken a nasty hit. It had been a
bitter pill to swallow. After much soul-searching and
self-affirmation that she remained a strong, independent woman, Sarah
had decided to leave the pain in the past where it belonged and to
focus solely on the road ahead. At such a low point in her life,
and desperately craving a change of scenery, she had packed up her
belongings, said goodbye to her friends and her hometown and headed
south to Virginia to begin anew.
