The Tycoon's Fiancée Deal. Katherine Garbera

      

      From make-believe to matrimony? Only from USA TODAY bestselling author Katherine Garbera!

      Dr. Derek Caruthers is up for the promotion of his life—if he can deflect his boss’s romantic designs. His solution? Single mom Bianca Velasquez—longtime buddy turned fake fiancée. Unfortunately, he’s feeling more passionate than platonic about beautiful Bianca...

      She knows the engagement is only pretend, but seeing Derek with her son and having Derek’s strong body next to hers at night feels way too real. Can she convince the stubborn bachelor that he’s ready for a spouse?

      The Tycoon’s Fiancée Deal is part of the Wild Caruthers Bachelors series.

      All she could think about was that big bed and Derek pleasing her.

      She flushed and cleared her throat, which was suddenly very dry.

      She tried to push the images out of her mind—of his naked body moving over hers. But she couldn’t. She had seen him at the pool and knew his chest was solid and muscled. Now she wondered what it would feel like under her fingers.

      He arched one eyebrow at her.

      “What?”

      “I think you just realized the most thrilling thing in this room is me.”

      She shook her head. “That’s a lot of talk, Caruthers.”

      “Again with you thinking it’s all ego. I promise you, it’s fact,” he said.

      “Another promise?” she asked.

      “This one I’m happy to demonstrate,” he said. Derek stood up and drew her to her feet next to him. “Don’t think. No more second-guessing. Let’s just see where it leads.”
