Kristy Mahoney is a bright, young clothes designer with a goal for herself. Jack Osland is a billionaire whose main goal in life is to save his family fortune from his grandfather's desires to marry every gold digger he can before he dies. Jack's plan to marry this particular gold digger before his grandfather just couldn't get any better. His private jet just happened to have a little engine problem -- nothing a few nights in Vegas couldn't fix. Let the gambling begin. Love's the game and money's the aim. The lights in the casino may be glittery, but Jack has the money to make life gold. Overwhelmed by her fairytale fortune, Kristy is awestruck with Jack but totally blown away when he asks her to marry him in Vegas. She hardly even knows the man, but wow, what a man he is. What a life he could provide. There had to be some flaws, but what the heck, she couldn't resist. Now Mrs. Jack Osland, complete with Prenup, she finds out all too soon what those flaws are. The manipulative, selfish jerk married her to save his fortune, but there will be no saving him from Kristy. She has a way of getting under his skin. If she would just go along with the charade until after Christmas, all would be a win -- win situation -- or would it? I absolutely loved Barbara Dunlop's THE BILLLIONAIRE WHO BOUGHT CHRISTMAS. What a perfect read for the Holidays. It was funny, heartwarming, and downright endearing. I laughed out loud and found myself cheering for Kristy and Jack. Grab a hot cup of cocoa and snuggle up to the fire for this one -- it will warm your heart.

SUMMARY

Wife to the highest bidder To save the family fortune, billionaire Jack Osland had to marry a woman he barely knew. Getting struggling clothing designer Kristy Mahoney to a Las Vegas chapel a minute after meeting her was no problem. Even though she supposedly loved someone else. Prenup in hand, Jack planned to enjoy his wedding-night privileges, then walk away with the untouchable Osland billions. He'd teach his gorgeous temporary bride a little lesson and have a very merry Christmas. But he had married the wrong woman...
