Amanda Ross is thrilled when she is appointed junior high
school principal in Caution Point, N.C. But her promotion
will only be a pipe dream if the board of education
discovers that she's pregnant—and single. She never
expected her baby's father to desert her, but explanations
won't satisfy a small town's rumor mill. A husband is what
she needs, and handsome music engineer Marcus Hickson
looks like the answer to her problem.
Embittered by his
ex-wife's selfish and cruel behavior, Marcus told himself
he'd never marry again. That is, until doctors inform him
that his injured daughter needs immediate surgery, and
Amanda—financially independent because of her inheritance—
offers to pay the medical bills if he'll be her husband.
Desperate, Marcus agrees, as long as their "arrangement"
is strictly business. But days and nights under the same
roof soon ignite mutual desire. Now Marcus and Amanda's
marriage of convenience has become an affair of the heart…
and a deception that endangers everything they hold dear.
