Romance

Kylie

After one last treasure hunt, I’ll no longer be in debt to my sleezy stepfather.

I’ll be free.

It’s the only reason I agree to dive into the Bering Sea—solo.

I find the treasure.

But when I resurface from my dive, I discover my rented skiff is sinking, and I’m now stranded at sea.

Until a Coast Guard helicopter appears in the sky.

It’s both an answered prayer and possibly my worst nightmare.

Because the treasure I’m hunting is illegal.

The sexy rescue swimmer who dives into the frigid water to save me has the power to turn me in.

So sleeping with him would be a very stupid idea.

Almost as stupid as agreeing to be his fake fiancé.

Or falling all the way in love with him…

Joel

I’m the last single member of the J-Squad.

For the past year, I’ve endured a painful onslaught of blind dates, courtesy of the well-meaning J-Squad wives.

I know when they hear about the woman I rescued from the Bering Sea that they’ll be relentless.

So I devise a plan to beat them all to the punch.

I ask Kylie to be my fake fiancé to play a prank of my friends.

We don’t have to fake the chemistry between us.

It’s off the charts.

But the falling in love part?

That wasn’t supposed to be real.

Guess the joke’s on me.

Unless I can convince Kylie to marry me—for real.
