Charmed, Texas, is everything the name impliesβquaint, comfortable, and as small-town friendly as they come. And when it comes to romance, thereβs no place quite as enchanting . . .
Lanie Barrett didnβt mean to lie. Spinning a story of a joyous marriage to make a dying woman happy is forgivable, isnβt it? Lanie thinks so, especially since her beloved Aunt Ruby would have been heartbroken to know the truth of her nieceβs sadly loveless, short-of-sparkling existence. Trouble is, according to the will, Ruby didnβt quite buy Lanieβs tale. And to inherit the only house Lanie ever really considered a home, sheβll have to bring her βhusbandβ back to Charmed for three whole monthsβor watch Aunt Rubyβs cozy nest go to her weasel cousin, who will sell it to a condo developer.
Nick McKane is out of work, out of luck, and the spitting image of the man Lanie described. He needs money for his daughterβs art school tuition, and Lanie needs a convenient spouse. Itβs a match made . . . well, not quite in heaven, but for a temporary arrangement, it couldnβt be better. Except the longer Lanie and Nick spend as husband and wife, the more the connection between them begins to seem real. Maybe this modern fairy tale really could come true . . .
