Maria
My family’s business is in tatters, and the only thing that can save it is if I marry a perfect stranger. The answer is no, obviously … except my dad already promised me to him. My soon-to-be husband I’ve never met, the 6’3 Xavier Romano.
I know I should run, but something about him makes me curious enough to stay. Will having him once sate my curiosity, or am I about to fall hard?
Xavier
Time is running out, and I need a wife. A business associate defaults on his loan to me, and I accept an unusual payment—the hand of his daughter in marriage.
Maria De Luca is a blond, blue-eyed spitfire, and I like her a hell of a lot more than I anticipated. This marriage is supposed to be all for show, but I can’t seem to keep my hands off her.
Will I be able to let Maria go once all is said and done, or will I keep her at my side, no matter what it takes?
