Ryan McKay is in a bit of a predicament. When his grandfather died leaving him the company, one thing was very certain in his will; in order for Ryan to inherit he had to marry and produce an offspring. Neither marrying nor producing an offspring is what Ryan wants to do. Ryan never felt love growing up. His father worked himself to death, his mother was a socialite who didn’t care about him and his grandfather just wasn’t the loving type. All Ryan wants to do is to run his company. Instead he finds himself married to his personal assistant.

Faith Lewis has been half in love with her boss ever since she started to work for him, but she never dreamed that they would be married. With only a couple of hours left to go before Ryan can fulfill the terms of his grandfather’s will Ryan proposes that Faith wed him; after his current bride-to-be flees the scene. Faith is not sure how the arrangement will go, she is afraid that she will fall in love with Ryan, but knows that Ryan will never return her feelings. Can these two people learn to trust each other enough to fall in love?

Have you ever read the blurb of a book and fell in love with it because that’s what happened to me with this book? It’s Cinderella and Romeo and Juliet come to life. I could perfectly understand the feelings that each person was going through in doubting their love. I love the way that Ryan brings the better side of Faith to life with a makeover he’s not sure that he can handle when he sees the results. However, this book is about more than looks; it’s about a couple that listens to the other person and finally comes to learn that they are both worth loving. It’s been quite a while since I’ve read a Ms. Burton book, but Jaci for this one you get a 5 angel review, a recommended read and the chance for me to go back to your backlist and see what all I’ve missed.
