Winter in Promise Cove

A driven Montana cattle rancher needs a no-strings-attached fake fianc嶪, and he's willing to pay. She'll play along to get back on her feet again.

Fiona Lambert is almost broke. When a stranger offers her cash to be seen on his arm for a few months, she figures she can put up with his overbearing attitude to get a stake for a new start. She's got one condition: none of her Promise Cove friends can find out about it.

Kevin Dixon needs to wrest back control of the valley's cattleman's association before the jerk who used to be his best friend drives it into the ground. At the same time he needs prove he isn't the ogre his ex portrays him to be and recover his reputation. When he meets Fiona, he decides she's the perfect choice for his plan: pretty, smart, and uninterested in love.

She enjoys being seen with one of the most sought-after men in the valley; he laughs at her attempts to sand off his aggressive edges with affection. They're having fun, but it's a dangerous game of play-acting.

The scenic ranches of northwestern Montana provide the setting for this later-in-life clean western romance. Sit down with a cup of cocoa and cozy up to this charming story of unplanned love.
