***WINNER OF THE 2018 SWOONY AWARD for excellence in clean secular romance.***
Piper Quinn has a great thing going. She’s young, talented, and the sole chef at San Antonio’s hottest lunch bistro. She and her business partner just have to stay open one year to be eligible for the coveted Texas Star.
Days before eligibility, Piper gets terrible news: she’s getting deported.
To New Zealand.
Where her parents have joined a hobbit cult.
Attorney Zach Travis can’t seem to break into the partnership bracket at his big, respected firm—despite his stellar record. He hears a rumor his bachelor status may be holding him back. Zach needs a wife to advance his career. The girl at the bistro is an intriguing candidate.
As Piper shares her desperate plea for legal help, Zach realizes he can fix both their dilemmas—with a marriage certificate.
However, their plan puts them in the cross-hairs of more than one vindictive enemy.
Worse, will neatly ending their marriage end up tricky, due to a sparking chemistry neither Zach nor Piper can ignore?
