Everly Christian moves to Calamity, Montana hoping for peace after years of chaos. She wants boring. She wants predictable. One evening at the local bar changes everything when she meets Reese Huxley, a compelling artist who draws her into his bed and his complicated life. After overhearing a private conversation, Everly discovers that Reese needs a wife fast. She agrees to marry him, though she keeps her own motivations secret. The arrangement should stay simple. Everly plans to protect her heart and walk away when the fake marriage ends. But Reese proves difficult to resist, and the more he tries to maintain distance, the deeper Everly falls. She has always been drawn to troubled men, and her new husband fits the pattern perfectly. Now Everly must decide whether this marriage of convenience might become something real.
