About the book
GROOM: Divorce attorney Dash Davenport had seen enough bad endings to know that marriage was a mistake. When he had asked Savannah Charles to marry him, it was out of mutual necessity--not love.
BRIDE: Weddings were Savannah's business and she was an expert on marital bliss. Yet she'd given little thought to her own day of joy. Until Dash Davenport offered a proposal that would benefit them both.
HAPPILY EVER AFTER? Dash claimed he'd never be convinced "I do" could last forever. Yet he'd never expected to marry Savannah-the most passionate woman he'd ever tried not to love...
