Hold Me

Dive into New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Anne Marsh's delicious story of a fiercely hot billionaire, a quirky little smart-mouth and a sexy little game that'll get them in a whole lot of trouble…

With ten jobs and six addresses in four years, Peony Harding might as well change her name to Ms. Anticommitment. But before she can initiate Peony 2.0 (the responsible, career-minded, settled-down version of herself), she meets Jax Valentine—at a sex party. Jax is over six feet of dark, brooding, dirty fun…with a 100 percent chance of trouble. Like a sexy little game of "pretend marriage" that ends with a wickedly real wedding night!


Jax Valentine likes his life just fine as it is. But Peony, a gorgeous, quirky firefly on the verge of disappearing into the night, completely unravels him. He cannot resist her…so why would he scare her off by admitting he's a billionaire?


It's a summer fling filled with ridiculously hot heart-pounding sex, laughter and tacos on the beach. But every fling has an end date. Which is exactly when Peony discovers who Jax Valentine really is: a billionaire, her new boss…and her very real husband.
