Best-selling author Probst offers a contemporary reworking of the marriage-of-convenience story. Alex, a financially strapped bookstore owner, and billionaire Nicholas marry solely so he can inherit and she can pay her bills, but their plans for a relationship without entanglements are quickly defeated. The characters are one-dimensional; the predictable plot is interspersed with sexually explicit scenes. Actor and award-winning narrator Coleen Marlo provides a clear and well-paced reading of a light, contemporary romance.
VERDICT This title will interest romance fans.
