Hopeless 

Beau Eaton is the town prince, a handsome military hero with a tortured past. I`m the outcast bartender, a shy girl from the wrong side of the tracks. He`s thirty-five and all man, I`m twenty-two and all . . . virgin. He`s also my fiance. Correction: my fake fiance. We start out as a bet. He doesn`t believe that anyone holds my last name against me. So he offers me his to prove a point. It`s a win-win. He gets a break from his concerned family`s prying, and I get a chance to shed my family`s reputation while I save up to ditch this small town. He says all I have to do is wear his ring, follow his lead, and pretend I can`t keep my hands off of him in public. But it`s what happens between us in private that blurs all those carefully drawn lines . . . It`s what transpires behind closed doors that doesn`t feel like pretending at all . . . This engagement was supposed to be for show. This agreement? It has an end date. He once told me he`d never fall in love. And yet here I am, head over heels for my fake fiance.
