My Autumn Knight's Sham Marriage

Returning to Kissing Springs was never my plan, but paying an old debt to my former lieutenant went wrong and left me married to a sassy mafia princess so she and her teenage daughter could stay hidden.

My family and friends celebrated the homecoming, never guessing that the marriage license was false, the wedding rings were worthless stand-ins, and our perfect husband-and-wife act was only for show.

I had chosen fast-paced Las Vegas over my father's bank and the ordinary life of a family man, and I kept telling myself this small-town arrangement would not last.

Her sweet scent, her sharp mouth, and the nights I spent keeping her warm began to undo that distance, until I wanted to be the only man my wife and her daughter needed and to turn the sham into something real.

A mob boss bent on revenge is coming to Kissing Springs, and the life we are pretending to live may not stay a disguise for long.
