His Convenient Marriage

Miles Hunter had lived life on the edge.

A solitary bestselling thriller writer scarred by a violent past, he demanded quiet seclusion at Silvertrees House. When he proposed marriage to Chessie, she knew it couldn't be because he loved her. They were practically strangers! A business arrangement was hardly a real wedding!

For months, she had kept his country house running like clockwork, typing his manuscripts while caring for her rebellious teenage sister Jenny in the flat. He simply needed a social hostess and someone to look after his beautiful home.

Chessie knew she owed Miles a great deal. When her family had been torn apart by financial scandal, he'd taken her in and given her a job and security. But was he now expecting her to repay him…in his bed?
