Marriage of Convenience Boxed Set
Judith Arnold - 2013
They start their married life as strangers… then sparks fly, love catches them by surprise, and their arrangement becomes much more. This boxed set features four full-length “marriage of convenience” romance novels:Cry Uncle by USA Today bestselling author Judith ArnoldWith a hit man after her, Seattle architect Pamela Hayes runs as far as she can: to steamy Key West. Local bar owner Jonas Brenner will lose custody of his orphaned five-year-old niece unless he can convince a judge he’s a responsible father. What he needs is a wife to persuade the court his niece is living in a stable environment. What Pam needs is a new identity. Joe offers her a deal: if she marries him and takes his name, no hit man is going to find her. In return, she can pose as Joe’s wife, dutifully caring for his wild-child niece. A marriage in name only—no sex, no emotions, no love.

When her newest client hires her to steal a fertility idol from an Amazonian sex-and-death cult, she finds herself south of the equator and shoulder deep in true believers, while Rio de Janeiro gears up for the closing celebrations of Carnival. Stealing the idol is one thing, however. Keeping it is another.The arcane black market has drawn a host of cutthroat operatives and Sara's now in their sights. In a race across one of the most colorful cities in South America on its most famed night of the year, Sara must navigate cunning enemies, backstabbing allies, a fifty-foot wedding cake float and a new, sensually mysterious contact who may be friend or foe...and whose name she’ll never know if she doesn’t make it to dawn alive.

Because the enemy she fled all those years ago has returned... with a posse of demons as his personal entourage.
