Fiancé in Name Only. Can She Change that?

Chloe Caldwell has been working for Dalton Resorts for quite a while. Six years ago, when recent MBA graduate Luke Hunter came to work for the company, she recognized someone who was on his way to the top, so she hitched her wagon to his star and they'd made a good team ever since. However, back on Caldwell Island (named after her ancestors who discovered it) off the coast of South Carolina, her grandmother worries about her in the big city. So Chloe has told Gran a little fib. She's told her she's engaged to Luke, so now Granny isn't worried about her.Things are going swimmingly for Chloe, until one day Luke gets an invitation to come down to the island with Chloe, his fiancée. Chloe is embarrassed about it and she tells Luke why she gave her grandmother that impression. Luke surprises her by buying two tickets for South Carolina. He's agreed to play along and Chloe is touched, thinking he'd do that for her. But Luke has an ulterior motive. He wants to scout the island for a resort hotel and Chloe's family offers him good cover, which he needs, because he's afraid if the local land owners find out an out-of-towner is around looking for land the price will go sky high.However the best laid plans of mice and men, or so they say, often go awry. Sparks fly between Luke and Chloe. It looks like love is going to bloom after all those years of working together. But what will happen when Chloe finds out the real reason Luke agreed to their little masquerade?I read this inspirational romance in one sitting, even letting my coffee go cold. It was a darn good thing it was Saturday and I didn't have to go to work. I simply loved this book.

What an enjoyable read

I found the character Chloe relatable along with Luke for that is where I find myself. Trying to find where I fit in the scheme of things and needing to rely on God to help me sort everything out. Sometimes you have to go home to find out your true place in the world. The book also helped to make one appreciate family and the pushing and proding they do in your life for you know they love you and care.

Family Fued

Chloe Caldwell's family wants her married. When she pretends that she is dating Luke Hunter she doesn't think their will be problems. When she gets an invite for both of them to visit home she thinks, "No big deal. I'll tell them he's busy." Then Luke shows up with TWO tickets home. Now, she has to pretend with her family all around. The Caldwell family has been in a fued for years between her dad and her uncle. Chloe and Luke set out to see what started the whole problem. Meanwhile Luke is there under different reasons. He's looking up some land to build on. See what happens in "Hunter's Bride"
