Tempting James: Best Friends Sister Protector Romance

By: Pinder, Victoria

She needs a husband. He needs an excuse to stay close. What could go wrong?

Scarlett Hawke is tired of being underestimated. If a fake husband is what it takes to land the biggest deal of her career, then fine. She'll find one.

Enter James Clancy-former Marine, walking temptation in worn-out jeans, and the last person she should trust. He's grumpy, infuriating... and handpicked by her overprotective brother to keep her safe from a lingering threat.

Scarlett has zero intention of actually needing protection. But James? He's not going anywhere. And when she proposes a business arrangement-a temporary marriage with a hard expiration date-he shocks her by saying yes.

The deal is simple:
One month. No feelings. No complications.
Just business. Just protection. Nothing else.

Everything is perfect.

Until one fake kiss turns into something much, much more...

Love a grumpy ex-Marine, forced proximity, and enemies-to-lovers heat? Click now-James Clancy is about to ruin Scarlett's perfect plan.
