Bride at the altar…unbridled in the bedroom

Billionaire Jonas Kim only needs one thing to become CEO of his family's company: a smoothly executed business merger. And to get that, he needs a smoothly executed marriage of convenience. Enter Viviana Dawson, Jonas's best friend, who agrees to become a contract bride until the deal is sealed. Viv has crushed on Jonas forever but the stubborn tycoon can't see over the fortress he's constructed around his heart. Yet when fake marital bliss leads to unparalleled bedroom ecstasy, Viv declares war on the love-shy bachelor—and she won't settle for anything less than surrender!


A sassy take on a friends to lovers tale! The characters are fun and the plot is fast paced and sexy sweet. I’m looking forward to the other two stories in the trio!

When billionaire Jonas Kim needs a quick marriage of convenience to get a business merger to go through, he immediately thinks of his friend Viviana Dawson. They have a great laid back friendship and she’s willing to do this crazy favor for him so he can finally nail down that CEO position in his family’s business.

Viviana has been crushing on Jonas since the day they met, but he’s totally oblivious to the fact. She cares a lot about him, so she’s happy to help him out with his dilemma and has agreed to an annulment once their marriage is no longer needed. A girl can’t help but hope that getting up close and personal with Mr. Kim will make him wake up and want to enjoy a little marital satisfaction though!

For the baby's sake…

Scarlet and Mason Spencer's marriage was once hotter than a summer heat wave. But their failed attempts to start a family chilled their passion. Now on the verge of divorce, Mason's single-parent brother is dying, leaving his baby girl in Mason's care…and pulling Scarlet into a ruse that she's still the billionaire's happy, loving wife…

Pretending to be a family so Mason's brother's final days will be peaceful starts feeling like the real thing—as does the combustible chemistry she finds in her sexy soon-to-be-ex husband's bed. Will Scarlet's baby favor lead to a reunion…and the family they've always wanted?


Bittersweet! Andrea Laurence had me hooked from the first couple of pages and I sped right through without putting it down because I just had to know how it was all going to end … and it was even better than I had hoped for! 🙂 Great characters and a fast paced plot with lots of tugs on the old heartstrings are in store with this story!

Scarlet & Mason Spencer thought they’d be together forever, but no matter how strong their love for each other was, it couldn’t manage to survive the stress of not being able to have the family they desperately wanted. Now on the verge of divorce, Mason needs a favor … a huge favor. His dying brother needs him to agree to raise his baby daughter … only he thinks Scarlet and Mason are still together!

Taking Mason and the baby in and playing make-believe so his brother can have peace in his final days just might be the hardest thing Scarlet has ever had to do. She didn’t want their marriage to end in the first place and having the temptation of him in the house … with a baby no less … is really getting to her. Will they find that they like being a ready made family and decide to call off the divorce or is it just going to be one more thing to add to the list of heartbreaks she has to deal with?
