Condition Of Marriage
by Emilie Rose

HE WOULD GIVE HER BABY A NAME

To avoid adding more disgrace to the family, Mercedes Ashton agreed to marry her best friend, Jared Maxwell ... for convenience sake. Yet the truth was, she was having feelings for him. No, she had the hots for her husband! Whatever was Mercedes going to do, knowing Jared planned to end this marriage as soon as it was safe to?

Jared Maxwell did the right thing marrying Mercedes. After all, she had saved him from his darkest days. But the glow on her face and her swelling belly made her even more beautiful. He told himself she was off-limits ... even if she was now his wife.

Unless he could change the conditions of their marriage.
