It was supposed to be a one-night stand. Then she found out he was married. Mortified and embarrassed she tries to put the whole event behind her. Then two years later Gabriella finds herself face to face with Mr. Married Guy working on her new book narration. Once the recording begins their sizzling chemistry is impossible to ignore, and her one-night stand turns into more.

Love is a scary thing, the way it makes you feel, what it does to you. It could make a man capable of anything. For Gabriella Catania it made a man capable of murder. With her seven year old son in tow Gabriella runs home to Highland Meadows in hopes to gather some money and supply for her next move. Only, once the dead bodies start piling up, things become inescapable.

Software Solutions CEO & President, Gabriella Montez has just about everything she planned for. Unfortunately, what she didn't count on was needing a green card. So she hires a man to marry her for 4 million dollars as payment. Together they venture into this commitment and soon realize that keeping their feelings out of a marriage is a lot harder than it seems.

Gabriella finds herself divorced and looking for a fling, but in a small Texan town with a population of 764, it's not possible without giving people something more to talk about other than her cheating ex husband and good for nothing backstabbing ex-best friend. Not to mention she's already sharing room and board with the town playboy/her boss/ex-husband's former best friend.
