Bo Eaton is the town prince, a handsome military hero with a tortured past. Billie Jansen is the outcast bartender, a shy girl from the wrong side of the tracks. He’s a thirty-five-year-old man, she’s twenty-two…a virgin.

He’s also her fiancé. Correction: her fake fiancé.

It starts out as a bet, a point Bo must prove. And it’s a win-win: Bo gets a break from his worried family’s nosy side, and Billie gets a chance to shed her family’s reputation while saving up the money to leave this small town for good. All she has to do is wear his ring, follow his lead, and pretend she can’t keep her hands off him in public. Easy enough, right?

But what happens between them in private is what blurs all these carefully drawn lines. What happens behind closed doors doesn’t seem like a show at all. This engagement was supposed to be for show. Does this deal have an expiration date?

Bo once told Billie he’d never fall in love. She is determined to make him change his mind.
