Beau Eaton is the town prince, a handsome military hero with a tortured past.
I'm the outcast bartender, a shy girl from the wrong side of the tracks.
He's thirty-five and all man, I'm twenty-two and all . . . virgin. He's also my fiance. Correction: my fake fiance.
We start out as a bet. He doesn't believe that anyone holds my last name against me. So he offers me his to prove a point.
It's a win-win. He gets a break from his concerned family's prying, and I get a chance to shed my family's reputation while I save up to ditch this small town.
He says all I have to do is wear his ring, follow his lead, and pretend I can't keep my hands off of him in public.
But it's what happens between us in private that blurs all those carefully drawn lines . . .
It's what transpires behind closed doors that doesn't feel like pretending at all . . .
This engagement was supposed to be for show. This agreement? It has an end date.
He once told me he'd never fall in love.
And yet here I am, head over heels for my fake fiance.
*Elsie Silver became an instant Sunday Times bestselling author on the 2nd week of April 2024.

Person
Elsie Silver is a Canadian author of sassy, sexy, small town romance who loves a good book boyfriend and the strong heroines who bring them to their knees. She lives just outside of Vancouver, British Columbia with her husband, son, and three dogs and has been voraciously reading romance books since before she was probably supposed to.
She loves cooking and trying new foods, traveling, and spending time with her boys-especially outdoors. Elsie has also become a big fan of her quiet five am mornings, which is when most of her writing happens. It's during this time that she can sip a cup of hot coffee and dream up a fictional world full of romantic stories to share with her readers.
