A house and a fat bank account, all hers for the taking...if only she were married.Nathan Larrimore liked Cora from the moment he saw her. But then, there was a lot to like: she was beautiful, strong and self-assured. She was just the kind of woman who didn't need a man--except that she did.They agreed to be partners: five thousand dollars for Nathan to act as her husband, and when all was said and done they'd live happily ever after. Separately.Turns out that some partnerships are easier to end than others.Sensual content within marriage. Lucy Evanson writes historical novels of love, hope and redemption.
