​

​

Inconvenient woman. Convenient marriage.

​

​

The only child of an oil mogul, Rose Kingsbrier should’ve had it all. That changed the day her momma died, leaving her to live a solitary life in a mansion that was more like a mausoleum.

 

Rose tried for years to get her father’s attention, eventually finding it easier to become Eric Kingsbrier’s source of grief than to live in grief’s shadow. Convinced that she’s irresponsible, now Rose’s father intends to marry her off. But she won’t let him barter her away that easily.

 

Ross Cavanaugh is swept up in Rose’s scheming even before his construction business begins renovating the Kingsbrier mansion. The southern heiress is a hot ticket and Ross enjoys their budding friendship until Rose proposes a marriage of convenience to solve her problem and provide Cavanaugh Construction financial backing.

​

Rose may not mind dragging her reputation through the mud, but Ross has worked too hard to be accused of fortune hunting. Except Rose gets herself in over her head, and agreeing to her offer may be the only way to save her.
