Laura's life is falling apart. A struggling marriage. Mounting debts. Endless responsibilities. Between raising two children and trying to keep her family afloat, she barely remembers what it feels like to live for herself. Then she meets Eric Carter. Wealthy, influential, and impossible to read. Eric offers her a deal that sounds too good to be true: enough money to erase every debt and give her a fresh start. All she has to do is become his son's wife. For four months. Daniel Carter has spent years convincing his grandmother that he is a devoted husband and father in order to secure a family inheritance worth millions. Now that the elderly matriarch has decided to visit and meet the family she's heard so much about, his carefully built lie is about to collapse. Laura and her children are the perfect solution. Their marriage is fake. Their family is fake. Their feelings must remain fake. At least, that's the plan. But the longer they live under the same roof, the harder it becomes to ignore the connection growing between them. Behind Daniel's arrogant smile and playboy reputation lies a man whose heart was shattered long ago. Behind Laura's exhausted eyes is a woman who has forgotten her own worth. As jealousy, family secrets, betrayal and old wounds threaten to destroy everything, they must decide whether love is worth risking the lives they have built. Because sometimes the greatest lie can lead to the most unexpected truth.
