The Sergeant Major's Surprise Bride

My father' s eyes always gleamed when he spoke of the family pact.

Whichever daughter got the higher SAT scores and into a prestigious university would marry Mark Johnson, the town' s golden boy.

The loser would marry David Wilson, a rumored delinquent from the poorer side of town. This wasn't just a family discussion; this was a replay.

In my first life, I was the smart one. I got the top scores, the prestigious university acceptance. I married Mark, lived in a beautiful house. But "golden boy" Mark turned into a monster.
