Catherine Carson didn’t think there was an ideal man for her. And the last one she would have picked for the job was Jarrod Ballantine. He’d been a thorn in her side since she was a child, but he’d also been with her when life was at its roughest. Convincing him to be her husband proved an easier task than stopping herself from becoming his wife.

Fed up with her meddling family, Catherine has the perfect plan…make a deal with a nice, unexciting guy, who would agree to marry her for six months, then divorce. And she knew her childhood friend Jarrod Ballantine was just the perfect man for the job–until he sparked a completely unexpected desire. Now, Catherine must discover what she really wants to find…everything she’s ever dreamed and a future with Jarrod.
