The plan was simple. The results are anything but... I’ve lost too much to even think about opening my heart to anyone again. Grief consumed my life, and all I wanted was to be left alone so I could drown my sorrows while trying to find a sliver of relief at the bottom of a bottle. But my father saw right through me, throwing me a curveball I never saw coming. Go back to working at our family’s law firm, or take a wife. If I don’t, I can kiss my inheritance goodbye. Luckily, I have another card up my sleeve—and her name is Macy. She’s shy, sweet, with curves in all the right places. She’s also the perfect solution to my problem if I can convince her that what I’m proposing will end up benefiting us both. It’s easy. She needs money, and I need a wife. It’s a win-win situation. The way I see it, it’s just another business transaction. No commitment. No strings. Zero complications. What could possibly go wrong? *This is a Stand-Alone Novel with No Cliffhangers, and a guaranteed HEA
