by Mia Sheridan (Author)
A marriage of convenience. A vineyard full of ghosts. A love neither of them expected.
Kira Dallaire needs a husband, and fast. Not for love, but for survival. If she doesn't marry soon, she'll lose the inheritance that could free her from her cruel, manipulative father for good. Desperate and nearly broke, she makes a bold move: propose a fake marriage to a complete stranger.
Grayson Hawthorn is an ex-con with a failing vineyard and nothing left to lose. Kira's proposition is crazy...but it could be the lifeline he needs to save his family legacy. What starts as a cold, calculated deal quickly begins to simmer with tension neither of them saw coming.
They weren't supposed to fall in love.
But in the golden light of the vineyard, something starts to grow between them. Something dangerous, tender, and all too real.
Until secrets threaten to destroy everything they've built.
