Read OnlineCharlotte “Charlie” Berglund is devastated when
she discovers she can’t have children of her own. After her marriage
disintegrates, she sets her heart on adopting a child. However, her adoption
caseworker isn’t enthusiastic about Charlie’s profession of adventure travel
writer when she’s a single mom.
So Charlie decides to write a book about New
York’s hottest new celebrity: sexy, enigmatic Jack Lanett. The man has found
what may be the most valuable space rock in the world, one that could prove there
is life on Mars.
Jack hates being front-page news because he’s
spent a lifetime concealing his ugly past. However, he knows publicity is
necessary if he wants to sell his priceless meteorite at the highest price and,
even more important, gain the legitimacy he craves in the world of scientific
research. He agrees to one interview with Charlie.
Charlie offers Jack a business proposition. He
counters with a most unusual proposal: a marriage of convenience. As Charlie
struggles to adopt a daughter and Jack battles to keep his priceless discovery,
they come together with a passion that astonishes both of them.

“Contemporary marriage of convenience? But it
works! Jack’s fighting for recognition and Charlie’s fighting for a child she
wants more than anything in the world. They’re both fighting demons from their
past and finally, a potent, I mean POTENT, attraction. I adored these two
wounded warriors!”
