Summary
A cruel betrayal has since turned Lord Ren into one of London's most notorious rakes. Contenting himself to a life of debauchery, the Earl of Alderaan has long been viewed by marriageable society as a lost cause. Yet a chance encounter with an orphaned pickpocket proves that love may be found in the most unexpected of places and that it is never too late to repair a broken heart.
[excerpt]:
"She looks smart and quick, Ren. If anyone could do it, I would bet on you."Ren laughed, the sound of it slightly harsh and foreign. "What, you would have me teach her how to be a scullery maid?"
Hux shook his head. "Of course not. Perhaps you could introduce her to the ways of the gentry. Work to improve her manner and dress. With your guidance and the resources at your disposal, I wouldn't be surprised if you could transform this pickpocket into a lady."
Ren snorted. "Yes. She is the model of a docile, educated and refined woman."
"You have no desire to bed her. Perhaps an interaction with the fairer sex without such distractions would make you appreciate them in a different manner." Hux, ever the strategist, dared him with a gleam in his eyes. "Unless you're not up to the challenge."

Summary
Rey doesn’t know what to do with herself. She masquerades as a strong woman, but the truth is that she’s like a rag doll made up of unwanted pieces, a patchwork girl just barely stitched together. The slightest strain on her seams and she’ll fall apart.

Summary
The night the war ends is a time for victories and change. Maybe, if Rey is lucky, she can win where Ben Solo is concerned. There’s something between them, more than friendship or battle-forged camaraderie, a need that she’s felt threaded along their bond, and she’s tired of ignoring it.

Summary
Rey’s new GED instructor is a college student who introduces himself as Ben. He’s tall and broad-shouldered with huge, jittery hands and prominent ears that he’s unsuccessfully trying to hide under a mop of pretty hair. He’s hot, in a stuck-up rich boy kind of way, and he looks to be about Rey’s age. Then again, maybe she’s so desperate to feel less alone that any half-decent man would seem appealing.
She barely talks to Ben throughout their first three tutoring sessions. Rey expects him to disappear as soon as the novelty of visiting jail wears off, but he surprises her by coming back for a fourth lesson, then a fifth, a sixth. He’s impatient, awkward, and sarcastic to the point of rudeness, and Rey hates him a little. He radiates dissatisfaction, and what right does a boy like this have to be dissatisfied with his life?
Resenting Ben doesn’t stop her from looking forward to her GED lessons, though. They’ve become the highlight of her time.
