About this ebook
Pretend marriage...real danger!
The only way actress Catherine Wood could ensure her brother's release from jail was to accompany "Tom Trenchard" to Holland on a spying mission, while pretending to be his wife! With his roguish charm Tom made no bones about wanting Catherine in his bed—after all, she was an actress. But Catherine was determined to hold him at bay no matter how appealing he was. As they traveled into danger and depended upon one another, their attraction turned to love, and then misunderstanding. Would an eleventh-hour race against death finally make this "pretend" couple reveal the truth about their love?
