A cozy, steamy marriage of convenience with a devoted hero who worships his plus-size wife. Praise, acts of service, and a guaranteed HEA.

Now available on Kindle Unlimited.

I married a stranger for money. He married me because he'd been in love with me for six months.

The deal was simple: say I do to the quiet civil engineer with the soft eyes and the inheritance clause, give him an heir within 400 days, and kiss my student loans goodbye. No feelings required. Just business.

Nobody warned me about the lemon water he'd squeeze fresh every morning. The foot rubs he'd researched in advance. The way he'd press his lips to my skin and murmur good girl until every wall I'd spent a decade building crumbled around my plus-size, book-reading, deeply skeptical heart.

Javier Ball is precise, possessive, and so infuriatingly patient it makes me want to scream. He worships every curve I've ever hated, tracks my needs like engineering specs, and looks at me like I'm a problem he's delighted to spend the rest of his life solving.

I wasn't supposed to fall for my contract husband.

But 400 days is a long time to pretend you don't love the man who already loved you first.

Cozy, steamy standalone. HEA guaranteed. No third-act breakup.

Tropes: Marriage of Convenience, He Falls First, Acts of Service, Praise, Plus-Size Heroine, Nerdy Hero, Low Angst, No Third Act Breakup.

Content notes: explicit scenes, fertility/babymaking, delivery on page, praise, profanity, brief moment of child endangerment.

Now available on Kindle Unlimited.

For my birth readers: this book as a page or two of birth, but it’s romance-focused, not erotica-focused. It does have breeding, but it’s part of the larger arc, not a central theme.

Full blurb:

The plan was simple: marry him for the money, use a turkey baster for the heir, and never — under any circumstances — fall in love.

Jennifer Wright has a plan: marry Thomas Scott, fulfill the terms of his eccentric great-aunt's will, produce an heir, collect her millions, and finally make art full-time. No feelings. No romance. Just a business arrangement between two broke artists who'd rather be painting and throwing clay than falling in love.

Thomas has other ideas.

He cooks. He plans. He runs the numbers on everything — including how long it'll take her to realize they're already married in every way that matters. He notices the coffee order she never told him. He gives her the master bedroom for her studio. He looks at her with soft eyes she's not ready to name.

And when he touches her, it's nothing like business.

Jennifer built her armor out of sarcasm, crimson lipstick, and a three-president-old vibrator. But Thomas isn't trying to break through — he's just quietly, patiently, making her life so good she forgets to keep her guard up. And now she's carrying his child, and the contract is satisfied, and she could walk away with everything she came for.

Except somewhere between the Shakespeare debates and the candlelit pasta and the way he whispers good wife against her skin, she stopped wanting to.

Standalone with HEA. Can be read in any order. No third-act breakup.

Tropes: Marriage of convenience. He fell first. Grumpy heroine / sunshine hero. Only one bed. Possessive-but-supportive alpha. Plus-size heroine. Praise. Small town.

Content notes: Explicit scenes, fertility/babymaking, praise, birth on page, profanity.
