The Favor: A Marriage of Convenience Romance

Product Information

I’d understood, so I hadn’t vilified him for it. But I’d hated that he’d made me feel like I wasn’t good enough to be part of the future he’d mapped out for himself, that I wouldn’t fit with whatever new image he meant to create. Yeah, my defenses had slammed up in an instant. And I was glad of that, because it had numbed the pain and allowed me to move on from Owen faster than I otherwise might have done. I know what PDA stands for. And no, there won’t need to be much of it. I don’t want to shove our apparent relationship in people’s faces—it wouldn’t look realistic. I’m a private man. I want it to look as though we’re trying to keep the relationship low-key for now.” My mouth twitching, I followed her into the kitchen. She looked about to make herself some coffee, but then she spotted the mac and cheese. “Smells good.” She sat at the table. “You done with this?” she asked, helping herself to the food. Dane sighed. “So you’ve said before. I didn’t care what you thought then; I still don’t care now. You’re of no interest to me. And you’re of no interest to her. You need to man the hell up and accept it, because I won’t have you playing these games with her. You’re going to leave here, and you’re going to stay away from her.”

Hi Gabriella, thanks for reading my books! Yes there will be a fifth DIYV book, it will be released either late this year or early next 2016 depending on how smoothly my schedule for this year goes http://www.suzannewright.co.uk/#!sche... But if Clint could have been handled using a calm, professional manner, you’d have gone down that route, wouldn’t you?” Since I would definitely have lost my own job, I’d have had to find another. Dane might have allowed me to conceal from future potential employers why I’d lost the job. But, knowing my ex, he’d have been spiteful enough to send my new employer a damn copy. After all, he’d warned me that he’d send one to my landlord, neighbors, and any future boyfriends.He kept a proprietary hold on her hand as they walked from crowd to crowd, mingling and networking. Several times he had to fire a look of warning at men who stared at her a little too long, as if those rings on her finger meant nothing. Yeah,” he agreed, his eyes on the picture. “Her name’s Vienna. I named her after the sweetest, strongest girl I ever met.”

It’ll only be for show. We won’t need to stay married very long.” He lifted his brow. “I warned you I’d one day call in my favor.” I had, because I’d been so damn grateful to him. My asshole-ex, bitter after our separation, had secretly filmed us having sex, and he’d threatened to post the video online if I didn’t do as he dictated. And what had he wanted? For me to either pay him a substantial sum of money I didn’t have or to sexually perform in front of a videocam for him. In the beginning, I used to bristle at his curt manner. Now? I was used to it. I knew not to take his rudeness personally. Dane didn’t put much effort into sparing the feelings of anyone.She no doubt had a general idea of what sort of man she intended to spend the rest of her life with it. Dane wouldn’t fit the bill. But he had an edge on every other man out there. She was already his wife. He just had to make sure it stayed that way. He had no clue how he’d manage it, but he would. There was no chance he was giving her up. She’d just have to come to terms with it.
