Publisher's Synopsis
From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Shayla Black comes a new story in her More Than Words series…
Can I convince her our hot but temporary engagement should last forever?
I'm Stephen Lund, confirmed bachelor…and son of a successful billionaire whose sins I can't forget - or forgive. Though he insisted I get over his transgressions, I can't. So I put space between us with a temporary getaway to Maui. My rental's sexy caretaker, Skye Ingram, is a beautiful distraction. Yeah, it's a terrible time to start a fling, but I can't help wanting to give her every bit of pleasure she's willing to take.
When Skye needs a date to her ex-boyfriend's wedding, I'm game to play her pretend fiancé. The jerk should see what he passed up…and that I'm holding her now. But our pretend engagement begins to feel real. Our passion certainly is. So are the consequences. When I'm confronted with the reality that our lives are now irrevocably entwined, I have to choose between leaving Skye to return to the life - and wealth - I've always known or abandoning everything familiar to start over with the woman who awakened my heart.
**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a stand-alone story. For new listeners, it's an introduction to an author's world. And for fans, it's a bonus book in the author's series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**
