Hitched

A family desperate for the top. A dangerous game of cat & mouse. And a surprise relationship that proves both deadly, and a miracle, all at the same time.

Caleb Harris is the most eligible bachelor according to most media, and I can see that that’s gone to his head. The shocking part is that he’s evidently coming after me. We’re rival billionaires; him in bed with every woman in North Carolina, and in Scotland, and so far up his father’s ass he can’t see the light. Well, I’ll show him. I see that his spies are paid well, since he found me in the armpit dive that my newly divorced best friend chose for her reverse engagement party. Just look at his smug smile and his ‘so sure of myself’ glance. As I approach him, he paints on a mug, trying to mask the fact that he’s half corked. But I’m not showing him mercy. After a brief encounter, he tells me his da’s plan, and I laugh in his face. In a million years, that’s never gonna happen. But in a few months’ time, it does, and my whole world is turned upside down. We gain some, we lose some, but in the end, his da gets what he wants…no matter the cost.
Laney McAdams is audacious and beautiful, and smart as hell, but I can’t think of a bigger wench, and I know a lot of them. The lass is wholeheartedly cold and selfish, it’s no wonder she isn’t anyone’s favorite. I’ve been sent on a mission, despite the trouble I’m in, despite the huge risk I’m taking, I have to set that all aside for da. As I sit in the bar, waiting to deliver shocking news to a new client, sure as the nose on my face, Laney sits at the back of the bar, just waiting to eat me for breakfast. I try to put on the charm, I try to be civil with her, as I wait for Chas Ford to learn his fate, but this woman was born to do one thing: profit. And the worst part is, so was I. It’s no wonder we clash from the start. But as she walks away from me, looking back at me, I see something in her eyes. I’ll realize soon that it’s the future. But not a future that I would have envisioned. One where my life sits on the balance, lives are lost, saved and miracles are made. All while somebody wants to see us fry… and I find myself risking everything all over again…for something more important than ever. But for once it’s not for money.
