The Fake Fiancée Proposition

He was anti-marriage. She was baby-crazy. Their fake fiancée pact was never supposed to feel this real.

River was a real estate CEO, a huge workaholic, and was vehemently anti-settling down. He rolled his eyes every time the topic of marriage came up. But he couldn't resist Pearl, the beautiful diner waitress. She was set to inherit a huge property . . . with crushing debt attached. River made a plan: get close to her, win her trust, and take the property off her hands.

When Pearl admitted all she wanted was to have a baby, River had an idea. He offered to help her get pregnant . . . if she agreed to pretend to be his fiancée to keep his family off his back.

Pearl, desperate to start a family, agreed. They sealed their pact with the steamiest, panty-melting, bang-on-the-kitchen-table kind of sex. One kiss led to more. Suddenly, they were all shacked up and blissfully happy.

River thought his plan would work as long as Pearl never found out the truth. The one rule? He couldn't fall in love. But Pearl made it so hard . . .

Will their risky arrangement lead to heartbreak? Or could it result in the love of a lifetime?
