About the book
He needed a wife... fast. And Texan Jeff Brand's lovely new assistant would do just fine. After all, the heat between him and Holly Lombard was becoming impossible to resist. And a no-strings marriage would certainly work for them both.
Yet once he put the ring on her finger, Jeff realized he may have gotten in over his head. He could ride a wild bronco, run a multimillion-dollar business and charm any woman he chose. But keeping feelings out of this in-name-only union? With a wife like Holly, the maverick groom had just discovered his toughest challenge yet.
