He Held Her Hand First

On a private flight to her destination wedding, Wren Winters clings to her seat as the cabin wall tears open. Her fiancé, Julian Ashford, is there, but the first hand he reaches for is Chloe Sinclair’s. After landing, he gives Chloe Wren’s only pair of flat shoes, leaving Wren to walk across debris until her feet bleed. Julian calls it an emergency, promises to make it right, and asks Wren not to turn one terrifying day into a fight. But as the wedding approaches, Chloe keeps appearing in moments meant for the bride, and Wren is forced to confront a question she never expected to ask: in Julian’s heart, who has always come first?
