The Australian's Housekeeper Bride

Rhiannon Fairfax believes everything should be calm and orderly.

And she’s made a career out of ensuring that other people’s lives are perfect. Running an elite household agency, she prides herself on restoring absolute harmony to wealthy clients in crisis.

Then billionaire Lee Richardson hires her. Summoned to Southall, his sprawling Queensland mansion, she expects nothing more than a hectic weekend catering emergency. Driven, proud and fiercely protective of his family heritage, he demands a temporary alliance to secure Southall.

Stormy, complex and autocratic, he needs a wife—and he wants Rhiannon! Swept out of her sensible shoes, Rhiannon agrees.
