A CONVENIENT BRIDE'S WISH

When she saw the chance to help her late sister's husband and children, Leanne knew she couldn't refuse. If Mitch needed a wife to keep custody of the twins, she would agree to become his bride–in–name–only. She would forget that her family would never understand, that her heart would break when it came time to leave, that her feelings for Mitch went far beyond friendship.

And she would hope that one day Mitch would see her as something other than just a convenient wife. More than a substitute mother to his adorable toddlers. She dreamed that one day he would look at her with a lover's eye, understand her heart's desire and take her as his wife in every sense of the word.
