    Summary

    Can two cursed people cancel out each other's bad luck?
    Rey has just suffered through the worst month of her life, but a quiet barman might just be the answer to all her problems.

    Story excerpt:

    “Well, maybe you can marry someone. You know – just until you get things handled with immigration.”
    Rey chuckles in disbelief.
    “I’m afraid that’s easier said than done. I don’t suppose you know anyone who’s looking for something akin to a mail-order bride? A complete emotional wreck of a mail-order bride, at that?”
    He coughs again, and there’s silence.
    Clyde gives the woman a beat or two so she can put together what he’s suggesting.
    When he finally hears a quiet little sound of realization, he knows she’s figured it out.
    “You mean…?”
    “Yeah. Me.”
    And somehow - miraculously - he’s finally found the nerve to look into her wide, gold-green eyes.
