After my first boyfriend left me with ruined credit and without a job, I have to take a position as a dog walker and move back in with family. I try to make the best of it, but ridiculously wealthy Green Valley is the last place I want to be.

I'm focusing on working hard and getting my life back in order, and I don't need Dan Mills offering me an easy way out. Marry him, he says. He'll pay me once he has access to his trust fund. It will simply be an arrangement of convenience, and it doesn't matter if I like him or not.

To me, the plan sounds completely bonkers, but I'm tempted. I shouldn't be, but I am. After all, Dan's not a bad guy. In fact, he's kind of great. And, if we both know the marriage is practical, how much trouble could it be?
