His Practically Perfect Plan B

He needs a wife. She needs a reason to trust.

When Stephan Deverill’s scheming actor cousin seduces his fiancée away from him, it’s not just a personal betrayal—it puts Stephan’s inheritance at risk. The clock is ticking. He must marry before his birthday—just weeks away—or lose it all. His only option? Actress Thomasyna Tollefson—the last woman Charley Ascott  dated.

But Thomi’s not about to be anyone’s shield. Guarded, stubborn, and hurt in more ways than one from Charley’s cruel betrayal, she’s determined to shut down Stephan’s absurd proposal—no matter how charming his smile might be. Nor does it matter that he’s saved her life out on her cliffs.

Stephan becomes determinedly persistent. He’s fallen hard for a woman who is nothing like the shallow creatures his father’s thrown at him for the past year—all of whom, Charley has spirited away. And he takes unprecedented measures to prove to Thomi that his plans have changed.

Thomi’s identical sisters, Rikki and Halleigh, while they agree Stephan is perfect for her, are all too eager to take her place should she ultimately decide she owes him no favors .

Adding to the drama, Stephan’s father is dead set against his son’s intentions and is determined to sabotage everything.

Can Stephan prove to Thomi that his love is genuine before his father ruins it all?

Will Thomi learn to love and trust him before time runs out?

Or . . . will Stephan’s patience with those deceptions she and her sisters pull on him give out first!

Oh, yes—and then there’s The Emperor Chou Ming Yen—Thomi’s loyal Chow Chow bodyguard . . .

Is it even possible for love to bloom among the thorns?

If you love witty banter, mistaken identities, and slow-burn romance with a touch of chaos, you’ll adore this delightful love story full of heart, humor, and a very protective pup.
