My family has given me an ultimatum—get married, or kiss my inheritance goodbye.
I planned to tell them where they could stick their money, until my restaurant failed and I lost everything. Now I guess I have to play their game. But the deadline is looming, and I can’t find anyone whos willing to marry me—except for a guy I just met named Embry Jayne.
I’m straight—but that shouldn’t matter, right? It’s a fake marriage anyway, and the terms of my inheritance didn’t specify that I needed to marry a woman. In fact, marrying a man might be the perfect loophole. Not...
My family has given me an ultimatum—get married, or kiss my inheritance goodbye.
I planned to tell them where they could stick their money, until my restaurant failed and I lost everything. Now I guess I have to play their game. But the deadline is looming, and I can’t find anyone whos willing to marry me—except for a guy I just met named Embry Jayne.
I’m straight—but that shouldn’t matter, right? It’s a fake marriage anyway, and the terms of my inheritance didn’t specify that I needed to marry a woman. In fact, marrying a man might be the perfect loophole. Not only is it a way to push back against my controlling family, it also means I can’t possibly catch feelings during this little charade.
To make this convincing, Embry and I will need a crash course in getting to know each other. We’ll also be spending time in close quarters during an upcoming family vacation. Good thing he’s really sweet and easy to talk tonot that I’m into him or anything…
This is just pretend, and after I collect my inheritance, we’ll go our separate ways. That’s what I want… isn’t it?
