His Virgin Bride


Kara Hart - 2017
    There are two choices: say “I do,” or leave forever. The first time I met James Mason, my number was up. I couldn’t stop smiling. When he talked to me in the parking lot, I knew he’d be the one. I should have ran when I had the chance. He looked at me like I was the answer to all his problems. He couldn’t resist. Neither could I. We fall into our own world, where he promises me all that I can dream of. When he holds me, I’m his everything. My heart pounds. My body aches. Something inside of me changes. And at the end of all this, I get totally screwed. He gives me an offer. A proposal for marriage, in exchange for some crap piece of land. I’m left floored. Breathless. Shattered. When your heart is broken, you start to understand just how the world works. I said I’d never forgive him, but there’s a first time for everything. Why shouldn’t I be his to have, to hold, and to touch forever? **His Virgin Bride is a standalone, full length small town romance novel with a HEA and absolutely NO CLIFFHANGERS!**
