Heir of the Hamptons
Author: Erika Rhys
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781979410892
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
A playboy heir. A near-bankrupt floral designer. A fake marriage gone awry. Ronan I was born into money, but I can't touch my trust fund until I turn 35. Unless I get married. But I'm not a one-woman man, and marriage isn't a trade-off worth even considering. Until now. With my business on the line, I need to tap my trust. And to do that, I need a wife. Ava's beautiful, classy, and smart. She's also a hell of an actress, and more than capable of fitting into Hamptons society. In every way, she's the perfect fake wife for me. Except that I want to tap her, too. Ava I never imagined I would consider a fake marriage. All I wanted was to get my floral design business off the ground, and someday-eventually-to meet Mr. Right. But with my dreams about to end in bankruptcy, Ronan's offer is my only way out. Unfortunately, there's a catch. When he looks at me, my knees turn to rubber, and when he touches me, my body lights up like a g*ddamned disco ball. He's anything but Mr. Right. He's domineering, stubborn, and hot-tempered, and while he also knows how to turn on the charm, I can't let myself fall for it-or for him. He's my financial salvation. But if I don't protect myself, he could also break my heart. Heir of the Hamptons is a steamy, standalone romance with an HEA. If you like sizzling romance, razor-sharp wit, and characters who you'll laugh and cry with, then you'll love Ronan and Ava's story!

Pages : 289
Book Description
An “original and moving” (The New York Times Book Review), “must-read” (People) portrait of an unforgettable, patrician Manhattan family and the tangled nature of inheritance and legacy, from the author of Like Mother, Like Mother “An absorbing page-turner, full of sex and secrets . . . I loved getting to know the entire Falkes clan.”—New York Times bestselling author Emma Straub AN NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR When English-born lawyer Rupert Falkes dies, his wife and five adult sons are bereft—even more so when six months later, their grieving is interrupted by an unknown woman suing Rupert’s estate, claiming that he was also the father to her two sons. The Falkes brothers are pitched into turmoil, at once missing their father and feeling betrayed by him. In disconcerting contrast, their mother, Eleanor, is cool and calm, showing preternatural composure. Eleanor and Rupert had made an admirable life together, and they were proud of their handsome, talented sons: Harry, a brash law professor; Will, a savvy Hollywood agent; Sam, an astute doctor and scientific researcher; Jack, a jazz trumpet prodigy; Tom, a public-spirited federal prosecutor. The brothers see their identity and success as inextricably tied to family loyalty—a loyalty they always believed their father shared. Struggling to reclaim their identity, the brothers find Eleanor’s sympathy toward the woman and her sons confounding, and they begin to question whether they knew either of their parents at all.
