A Bride For The Holidays

Trisha August is determined to be independent and will do anything–well, almost anything–for enough money to set up her own business. She can't believe her luck when hotshot Lassiter Dragan promises to give her a loan….

But there's a catch–she has to become his temporary "wife" for the Christmas holidays!

Lassiter has sworn that he'll never make himself vulnerable through love. So a convenient, temporary wife seems the perfect solution to enhance his business image. Only, living as man and wife is harder than either of them expects. Lassiter is appalled to discover he's falling in love with his wife!
