The Girlfriend's Secret

He needed a girlfriend. I needed the money.

Neither of us expected to need each other.

Scarlett Fontaine has one rule: keep her business and her family very, very separate. So when a stranger offers her a small fortune to pose as his girlfriend for six weeks, it seems like the easiest job she'll ever take.

There's just one problem. Aiden Bret is from the one family her mother has spent years warning her about.

Between meddling grandmothers, a suspicious younger brother, and a town that gossips faster than the grapevines can grow, keeping her identity hidden should be simple. Falling for the man she's supposed to be pretending to love was never part of the plan.

But some secrets don't stay buried until the harvest festival.

And when the truth finally comes out, it won't just cost her the job — it might cost her everything she never knew she wanted.
