About the book
Solo Maffeiano owns half of Penny Haversham's family home, yet she needs to pay off debts left by her late father. She has no choice but to agree to Solo's offer: he will pay the debts, restore the dilapidated mansion, where they will live -- if Penny becomes his wife! She will be his wife, bought and paid for -- and he wants a wife in every sense of the word. Penny knows she's still in love with Solo -- but isn't their marriage just a sham?
