White Lie Christmas by Christine Bell & Riley Murphy
|
Book Description:
The holidays are here, and Leah
Latrelle has made a mess of them. When her out-of-town parents’ concern over
her non-existent love life threatens to interfere with her father’s health, she
invents a boyfriend who quickly turns into a fiancé. Her family is thrilled,
and they change their Christmas plans last minute to meet their future
son-in-law. Now Leah has no choice but to come up with the goods. She needs a
man, fast. When her friend and business partner, Mick, offers himself up as a
sacrifice, she’s all over it. He’s handsome, dependable and available for the
job.
What could go wrong?
Tis the season, and Mick Kilpatrick can’t say no to a damsel in distress. Especially when that damsel is his luscious business partner who has been the object of his reluctant desire for the past year. He hasn’t pursued anything because being a dad is still priority number one. A sexy woman like Leah will only distract him from what’s really important and he can’t have that. He’ll pretend to be her fiancé, but when it’s over, everything will go back to normal. Sure, he’s fantasized about her once or...a million times but that doesn’t mean he’s in love with her. Does it? |

Bell:
Christine Bell is the USA Today
bestselling author of contemporary romances, and one half of the happiest
couple in the world. She and her handsome hubby currently reside in
Pennsylvania with a four-pack of teenage boys and their two dogs, Gimli and
Pug. She doesn't like root beer, clowns or bugs (except ladybugs, on account of
their cute outfits), but lurrves chocolate, going to the movies, the New York
Giants and playing Texas Hold 'Em.
Writing is her passion, but if
she had to pick another occupation, she would be a pirate...or, like, a ninja
maybe. She loves writing fun, sexy romances, but also hopes to one day publish
something her dad can read without wanting to dig his eyes out with rusty
spoons. Christine also writes erotic romance under the pen name Chloe Cole and
YA fiction as Christine O’Neil.
Christine loves to stay in touch
with readers, so please feel free contact her via her website

Murphy:
Riley Murphy writes sexy,
humorous and emotional romance, happy ending guaranteed. An optimist, she believes
life is awesome, people are complicated, but in a good way, and we should never
stop learning. Riley currently resides in Florida with her gorgeous husband.
She has two wonderful kids and one very bossy English Bull terrier she has
dubbed ‘The divine One’.
When Riley’s not working she
enjoys reading, oil painting and getting to the Sunday crossword puzzle before
anyone else does, so she can fill-in all the easy answers first.
If Riley wasn't a writer she’d be
an international spy with top-level security so she could have a peek at Area
51 and decide for herself if those green guys are for real. Failing that she’d
probably go with chicken sexer. Riley loves to hear from readers. Swing by and
say hello to her on her website at www.AuthorRileyMurphy.com or connect with
her on twitter @Riley__murphy where she’s always sharing her deep-dark secrets.

Ty for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI like stories of pretend -- we just know there's going to be HEA, but the fun is getting to that place. All the pretense, little white lies, and the awkwardness, and misunderstandings -- what a blast!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the movie The Proposal with Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds -- it's also a 'pretend' though for different reasons.
