Fake Dating the Unsuspecting Heiress
Maggie Dallen - 2020
Well, she's ready for anything...except Colton Parker. Nothing could have prepared this sheltered heiress for the hottie deputy with his sexy smiles and flirty charm. After a lifetime of avoiding the spotlight, she's not used to being noticed, let alone pursued by a guy as charming and charismatic as Colton. Not unless they have ulterior motives, at least. But here in this small town, no one knows her true identity, right? So maybe she's ready to give love another shot. Even if Colton does seem too good to be true...
When Addison's father hires Colton to be her security detail without her knowledge, he assumes she's going to be the sort of spoiled brat he's seen time and time again come through their tiny little ski town. But then he gets close and realizes...she's not what he expects. But maybe that's all part of her act. Because Addison Reginalds can't really be this sweet or this trusting. Her whole wide-eyed innocent routine, the way she devotes all her time to the kids' charity—she's too good to be true. Definitely too good for a notorious player like him. Besides, even if she is as perfect as she seems, he's got plans for the money her father promised. Plans he's not about to throw away just because his new assignment makes his jaded heart feel something. Something alarmingly like love...
