After catching her fiancé in bed with her best friend, Rowan Belmont leaves behind the mills and factories of the Midwest to be with her sister in San Francisco. Being robbed in Kansas City leads to her trying to pawn her engagement ring, only to find out that much like her ex-fiancé's love, it's fake. Alone, broke, and on the edge of giving up, Rowan needs a miracle. Marcel Champlain can't get the beautiful woman he met at the Kansas City hotel out of his mind. When she turns up at his family's jewelry store he knows that God has brought them together, unfortunately she has no interest in a romantic relationship of any kind. Desperate to keep her, he makes Rowan a job offer: Go with him to Decker's Creek, Wyoming to open a new jewelry store and pose as his wife. With only three months to convince Rowan that she should become his wife in truth, Marcel intends to show Rowan that no other man on earth will ever love her as much as he does. Their time together may be cut short by when it seems like fate will take Marcel from Rowan all too soon and leave her once again alone in the world.

Ann is Queen of the Castle to her wonderful husband and three sons in the mountains of West Virginia. In her past lives she's been an Import Broker, a Communications Specialist, a US Navy Civilian Contractor, a Bartender/Waitress, and an actor at the Michigan Renaissance Festival. She also spent a summer touring with the Grateful Dead(though she will deny to her children that it ever happened). From a young age she's been fascinated by myths and fairytales, and the romance that often was the center of the story. As Ann grew older and her hormones kicked in, she discovered trashy romance novels. Great at first, but she soon grew tired of the endless stories with a big wonderful emotional buildup to really short and crappy sex. Never a big fan of purple prose, throbbing spears of fleshy pleasure and wet honey pots make her giggle, she sought out books that gave the sex scenes in the story just as much detail and plot as everything else-without using cringe worthy euphemisms. This led her to the wonderful world of Erotic Romance, and she's never looked back. Now Ann spends her days trying to tune out cartoons playing in the background to get into her 'sexy space' and has learned to type one handed while soothing a cranky baby.
