A steamy small town, fake marriage romance.
Noah Callaway is Emerald Creek’s golden heir, the gentle protector I’ve secretly adored for years.
Me? I’m a nobody with two life lessons. One: Never, ever get married. Two: Emerald Creek will always be there for me.
So when Noah offers me a fake marriage to save his estate and ultimately the town, I’m devastated that he doesn’t see me as anything more than a transaction. But with Emerald Creek on the line, I pack my broken heart and settle in as Mrs. Callaway.
One thing Noah is about to find out: I don’t do things half-way. Including faking a husband.
Book 5 in the Emerald Creek Series, How to Fake a Husband can be read as a standalone.
