Chapter One
 

New York City
New Year’s Eve

 

G
rier Thompson lined up the champagne flutes in neat, even rows. Her CPA’s heart gloried in the precise organization and order to be found in the close attention to detail. By her calculation, it would take about three and a half bottles of bubbly to fill all the flutes to properly ring in the new year.

The sounds of her mother’s annual New Year’s Eve bash swelled from the other side of the swinging kitchen door as she poured glass after glass, but the happy laughter only pushed her further into her own gloomy thoughts. She’d believed coming home for the holidays would be just the thing to shake her out of the doldrums, but unlike her accurate champagne estimate, she’d sorely miscalculated this trip.

Without warning, a barrage of images from the previous New Year’s Eve assailed her. She’d attended the same party and smiled and laughed with all the people she’d known for years, a bright diamond sparkling on her left hand and a smart, handsome fiancé by her side.

God, so much had changed in the ensuing twelve months.

The fiancé she’d looked forward to marrying was no longer a part of her life.

The accounting firm where she’d excelled had abandoned her without so much as a good-bye.

And the father who’d ignored her for her entire life had come calling in the form of a contested inheritance in the far-flung reaches of Alaska.

“And now you’ve got an annoying case of self-pity to boot,” she mumbled to herself as she reached for a glass. “Which is about as appealing as an infection.”

“What did you say, darling?” The door swung open to reveal her mother’s oldest and dearest friend, Monica, as she floated into the kitchen, a surprisingly bright swath of feathers adorning the crown of her head. “I heard you talking about an unpleasant matter?”

Grier almost choked on her sip of champagne as she glanced quickly around the kitchen. “Oh, it’s nothing.” Her eyes alighted on one of the bottles. “Just muttering about that last cork. What a beast it was.”
