Dark Love by Nancy Wells
Wendy hasn’t had much luck with men. She’s had three serious relationships – serious for her, anyway – and they’ve all ended in heartbreak. On the night of her last breakup, after too many glasses of wine, she runs into a mysterious man who asks her to pretend to be his boss’s girlfriend. The money is good, so what could go wrong?
Joshua is handsome, there’s no doubt about it, and he always has women at his fingertips. Unfortunately, his father is pushing for him to marry a rival crime boss’s daughter. A girlfriend for hire may be just the ticket. But when he meets Wendy and they start spending time together, their chemistry can’t be denied. The boss isn’t happy his son is in a relationship. Joshua isn’t happy with the thought of an arranged marriage. Wendy becomes a pawn between two very powerful men with different agendas. It doesn’t help when she realizes she’s fallen in love with her ‘pretend boyfriend’. Joshua needs to keep Wendy safe for a bit longer, but can he let her go when her ‘job’ is over?
