Description

Peta and Marcus had a wonderful whirlwind wedding—but their vows are a sham: it's a marriage of convenience!

Facing a ruthless cousin determined to sell her Australian dairy farm, Peta had only days to marry or lose everything her brothers depend on. Enter Marcus Benson, who collided with the feisty Australian on a fire escape and offered an astonishing bargain. Could a whirlwind trip to the coast protect her beloved home?

Now billionaire Marcus Benson is showering his bride with gifts and offering a life of luxury. Surely that would be a dream come true for penniless Peta? No! Peta wants him—not gifts or money!

Instead of penthouses and champagne, the guarded tycoon finds himself dodging cows, cooking for her twelve-year-old brother Harry, and sleeping on an open veranda. Would two weeks sharing sea breezes and farm dogs soften a man who vowed never to risk his heart?

She's startled to realize she's falling in love with her convenient groom. But Marcus has built impenetrable walls around his heart. Has Peta got what it takes to knock them down?
