Description

In order to receive his inheritance, Jake Mitchell must marry. In order to save her family's farm, Sue Lewis must marry a rich man. So Jake comes up with a plan. Why not strike up a platonic business arrangement where they can marry each other for six months? Then they are free to annul the marriage and go their separate ways.

Unfortunately for him, the people he knows are determined to keep them together. Between an army of suitors willing to court Sue before her annulment and the Lewis brothers scheming to show Jake how attractive she is, laughter and love are in the air. And in the end, a confirmed bachelor might discover that an inconvenient marriage may not be so inconvenient after all.

    Just finished reading it for the second time! I love it! Made me laugh out loud, awe moments, and had me wanting to read more! Can I get a hard copy??

  • Kept thinking it can't possibly be this bad...

    But it really is. The language, mannerisms, and expressions are all wrong for the time period. Clearly the writer didn't bother with pesky research. There's minimal character developed and the dialogue made me roll my eyes. The writer incorporated contemporary slang and expressions into a period piece. 'Nuff said.

  • Run! Worst Book Ever!

    This is a terrible, terrible book. It rambles. It was much too long. The characters are unbelievable and unlikable. The plot is ridiculous. It is supposed to take place in 1899 but, there are so many things out of place, it's shocking. I kept reading hoping that the love story would make it all worthwhile but it was a huge letdown. Even their love scene was horribly disappointing. I honestly can't believe that she's written so many books. No wonder she had to publish her own books. No one else would.

  • Not worth the 0.99 I paid

    Such a wonderful book! It was able to bring out many emotions from me, I caught myself laughing out loud, sighing, saying aww, and on the edge of my seat. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was definitely a wonderful, clever, and sweet book. Yay!

    The story line was alright, but the writer needed to do more research on how people spoke in that time period. It was set around the 1900, but the characters kept slip into modern day terms and uses of words. This could have been a really good story if the writer did a little more homework.

  • Nice read!

    This was a good book for the price. The characters were fun, albeit a bit predictable. The story was good and all the characters were fun to read.

    Could have been a good book had someone else wrote it. Good story line but the writing was almost juvenile. Author is either an inexperienced writer or a kid.
