Exes with Benefits

***He wants a second chance. I want a divorce. To get what I want, I'll have to give him what he does.***

From New York Times & USA Today bestselling author, Nicole Williams:

The only benefit I want from my ex is a divorce. 

We got married for all the wrong reasons. The one thing we got right was our separation. I should have known better than to think I could bet on forever with a guy like Canaan Ford. Everything about him screamed impermanent, from his wild eyes to his restless soul. 

When I left him and the small town I'd spent my whole life in, I swore I'd never go back. Never only turned out to be five years. Canaan claims he's changed, but he hasn'tsame knowing smile, same rough demeanor, same body crafted from sin and sinew. And yet, something is different. He thinks this is his chance for redemption. My disagreement comes in the form of divorce papers dropped in his lap. He refuses to sign them. Unless . . .

He wants a month to prove himself to methat's his offer. One month to make me fall in love with him again and if I don't, he'll sign the papers. As much as I want to say no, I agree. I can suffer my ex for a short amount of time if that's what it takes to be free of him once and for all.  I fell for him once; I won't make that same mistake twice. 

He says we're not over. I say we were over before we got started. Only one of us can be right, and I can't let it be him.
