I Married Him So My Town Would Survive

Marriage was never meant for girls like me—let alone to the cold, haunted heir of Silver Hollow. Three years on the streets taught me to survive, not to love.

Harrison Whitmore despises me—his heart belongs to another—but in this house of lies, the only way to protect my hometown is to play the perfect wife… or risk everything. When assassins strike and Harrison is forced to choose, my life hangs in the balance. Will the truth set us free—or will my sacrifice destroy us both? What’s the price of a borrowed identity when the heart is the last thing left to lose?
