"This is what a love story should be." - RT Book Reviews

Their engagement is purely contractual…but their chemistry is all too real! 

I’m acquiring the House of Fontaine… and I want you as my wife.”

Razor-sharp Australian businessman Adam Wilde needs a high-society bride. Marrying Gisèle Fontaine, head of the luxurious French parfumerie he’s buying, will obliterate memories of his deprived childhood. But the ruthless tycoon is finding he can think of just one thing: his fiancée.

Gisèle’s company—and family’s legacy—will crumble without Adam’s financial takeover. She reluctantly accepts Adam’s proposal, only for her body to be electrified by his touch. How can this be a marriage of pure convenience when Gisèle craves much, much more?

Excerpt

"Attention grabbing characters with angsty emotional confrontations! Annie West’s addition to the A Diamond in the Rough series is fast paced and addictive. A marriage of convenience quickly turns into the relationship of a lifetime to two wounded souls who happen upon one another’s softer sides when a business deal delivers on more than they bargained for. ...Highly recommended." ~ Thoughts of a Blonde

"Fabulous to read, and an excellent grovel at the end." ~ Malvina, Goodreads
