Colton Crawford was making my house a home, and I was back in my childhood room, trying not to think of the towering, gorgeous Adonis with a killer smile… and how much I hated him. Or at least that’s what I tried to tell myself. Because the more time we were forced to spend together in the dust and debris, the less our age-gap mattered. And the more the sparks flew. Colton was used to scoring on the ice, and after a freak storm left us sharing one tiny bed in his metal camper, the heat smoldering between us was hot enough to burn us both. But just when I thought my sexy, new neighbor might not be so bad, real-life came knocking, reminding us what we walked away from. less

Until I was propositioned by a stranger to be his wife for the next six months. And for whatever reason, I said yes.Talon Beckett was a domineering billionaire with a steely-blue gaze that made me forget my own name. It was my excuse for agreeing to his terms…that and he agreed to play up our recent vows when we attended my ex’s wedding.We both decided that we’d go our separate ways when our six months were up. He’d get full control of his bank account and the hotel chain that bore his mother’s maiden name, and I’d get whatever I needed in return. When our time was coming to an end, I realized the one thing I wanted was something he had no desire to give. It was the affectionate side he’d kept hidden from everyone despite his need to say, “My Wife” when we were out in public. And as I crossed the days off the calendar, it was harder to remember that our marriage wasn’t real. Especially when we needed to sign those termination papers.I feared I’d lose not only my new last name and job, but my heart along the way. less
