When He Weds
Available at
She was looking for escape. She found danger.
Jilted at the altar, Callie Walker just wants to escape the pain and humiliation of learning that her groom-to-be was cheating on her with her best friend. She wants passion. She wants to walk on the wild side. She wants to let go of her carefully regulated life and just feel. And while she’s out trying to dance the night—and her troubles—away, Callie stumbles into the wrong place at the wrong time and has to fight off a mugger. Desperate, Callie flees into the night, and right into the arms of an unlikely savior.
Enter Seth Carthright. Gorgeous. Sexy. Rich. Mysterious.
He offers her protection. Rides in like a hero in a long, black limo. They touch, and desire ignites within her. Maybe it’s the adrenaline, maybe it’s the fact that Callie just survived an attack that scared five years off her life, or maybe it’s just Seth…but she throws caution to the wind. Callie kisses her hero, and she has the hottest and wildest night of her entire life with him.
Criminal. Killer. Husband?
When Callie wakes up the next day, there is a giant rock on her finger and a piece of paper on the nightstand. A piece of paper that says she is the new Mrs. Seth Carthright. When the police storm the penthouse, she also quickly learns there is much more to Seth than she originally realized. The man who says that he’s her new husband may also very well be a criminal mastermind.
If she wants to stay alive, she has to trust him.
Turns out, Callie wasn’t attacked by just any mugger. She’s captured the attention of a dangerous predator who has decided that she’s his next target. The only way for her to keep living? She has to put all of her trust in the dark-eyed stranger who is sharing her bed. Surely, he isn’t as bad as the stories are saying? Because he’s risking his life for her. He’s protecting her from growing threats. And she may be falling for him. Hard. But is he lying to her?
Yes, he is. Seth Carthright is a perfect liar. And he can’t afford for anyone to discover the truth about him.
Undercover operative Seth Carthright saved Callie’s life. He wed her. And now, he has to lie to his bride in order to protect her. Sure, there probably was another way to keep Callie safe—marriage might not have been the only option, but it was the option that Seth liked best. Now he has to keep up the lie he’s been living even as he falls for his new bride. Because sweet and gorgeous Callie is the prey for a serial killer that Seth has been tracking. And, unfortunately, she’s the bait that he will use to catch the perp.
But, once the case is over and the truth comes out, will he lose his only shot at a happy ending? Because Callie hates liars, and Seth is a liar straight to his core.
