Playing Married in Summit County : A Standalone Marriage-of-Convenience Christian Romance (Summit County #9)
Katherine Karrol

Zack and Laci have been best friends since first grade. They’ve been there for each other through thick and thin, most recently through his war injuries and her exit from an abusive relationship. Neither has ever been willing to risk what they have by declaring their feelings for the other, so the friendship has remained just that.
Even after adjusting to life with his prosthetic leg and being treated for PTSD, Zack has declared himself unfit for relationships. He lost his chance with the only girl he ever loved because of his own cowardice, so his post-Army life will be focused on college classes and creating a new business, not the things he can’t have.
Laci’s normal joy is returning after finally getting away from the man who spent two years beating her down mentally and physically. After going against her own convictions and standards, she’s certain that no good man — or even God — will want her, but she’s determined to build a new life from the rubble.
When a positive pregnancy test leads to more threats, Laci needs someone to sign on the dotted line so that her baby can be adopted by safe and loving family. Best buddy Zack has always helped her, and this time is no different. They can hide a pregnancy and fake a marriage long enough to carry out their plan, right?
