Beauty and the Beach

About this book

Phoenix Park is the man Holland wants to avoid at all costs. Arrogant, wealthy, and insufferable, he is the last person she ever wants to see—until a disastrous internet scam leaves her penniless and desperate. Faced with ruin, Holland accepts an offer she can’t refuse: marry Phoenix for the summer so he can secure his inheritance from his ailing grandmother. What begins as a strictly business arrangement—complete with forced smiles and fake affection—quickly turns complicated. The "enemies to lovers" pair navigates a whirlwind of witty banter, hilarious pranks, and undeniable chemistry. As they play the part of a happily married couple, the walls Holland built around her heart begin to crumble, and the lines between their charade and reality start to blur. Everything is supposed to end when Phoenix’s grandmother passes away, but when her unexpected recovery leaves the couple trapped in their marriage indefinitely, the stakes reach a boiling point. Now, Holland must decide if the man she once despised is the one she is destined to love. *Beauty and the Beach* is a delightful, steamy summer read that perfectly captures the tension of a marriage of convenience gone beautifully wrong.
