Is it a marriage of convenience or something more? Something that sizzles like steam heat between Maddie and Jake that neither can resist! Oil heiress Madeline Quinn needs a husband by the time she turns twenty-five in order to claim her full inheritance. Mad Maddie, as the tabloids christened her, has learned the hard way that men only see dollar signs when they look at her. Maddie decides a marriage of convenience is the only answer. She turns to the one man in the world she can trust, her housekeeper’s son who always treated her like a little sister when they were kids growing up together. Jake Becker hasn’t seen Maddie since the night she tried to seduce him. Why should he help the woman who changed the course of his life? Simple. Revenge. Or is it something else? Something hot and smouldering that will not be denied? April Fool Bride is the first in a new Contemporary Romance Novella series: All Brides Are Beautiful Romance by Bestselling Author Joan Reeves.
