Where the Heart Is

by

Jenni Simonis

A desperate woman. An inheritance. A secret love.

Diane

When Diane Gates returns home after ten years, the last thing she expects is to be blindsided by the news that in order to receive her great-aunt’s inheritance, she must get married…in ten days time.

After locking away her heart so many years ago in an act of self-preservation, Diane must find a way to meet her family’s demands. Even if it means marrying her childhood best friend.

Devlin

After years of trying to rebuild his life, Devlin Connor finds himself at a crossroads when his former best friend shows up after ten years. With the stipulation Diane must wed to claim her inheritance, Devlin offers to help the only way he can…by marrying his former best friend. After all, platonic marriages happen all the time.

But as wedding bells ring, Devlin starts to realize there may be more than just bonds of friendship between him and Diane...

Can they put their past behind them? Or will the love they’ve fought against for so long finally come to light?
