Book Description

An accident takes Rome Matthews' wife and children from him. Sarah Harper loses her best friend. In the ensuing two years, Sarah longs to reach out to Rome, but her secret love for him makes that impossible -- until the day he comes to her and she agrees to a marriage of convenience. She has what she's dreamed of -- even though Rome loves another woman.

This is a rare example of how the marriage of convenience plot can work well in a contemporary setting.
