“I want you to marry me.”
A wedding in Smoke River, Oregon...
Marianne Collingwood has inherited a business, the perfect escape from her life of drudgery. There’s one condition: to claim the business, she must be married! Her coworker, handsome Lance Burnside, will have to be the groom—this marriage of convenience will help them both. Only once it’s too late does she consider the question of the marriage bed they must share...
“Banning’s talent for crafting warm, delightful tales once again wins.”
—RT Book Reviews on Marianne’s Marriage of Convenience
“A sweet, heartwarming traditional western romance.”
—RT Book Reviews on The Hired Man
