Secret Heir

One "fake" funeral. Two business rivals. And a marriage of convenience that is anything but business.

Mitch Morgan III is the king of New Orleans banking, driven by a singular need to prove he is number one to the "legitimate" family that once snubbed him. He has no room for love-an emotion he believes only leads to heartache. But when his mother's unexpected passing brings him face-to-face with a beautiful stranger at the service, his carefully ordered world begins to unravel.

Tess Taylor is a disgraced Wall Street analyst desperate for a second chance. Hired by Mitch's half-brother to facilitate a hostile takeover of Mitch's bank, she is supposed to be a corporate shark. Instead, she finds herself captivated by the man she's meant to destroy.

When a high-stakes business maneuver goes haywire, Tess risks her entire career to protect Mitch's empire. Now, to save her from corporate prosecution and secure his company's future, Mitch proposes a startling solution: a marriage of convenience. Caught between a family feud and a budding attraction, they must decide if their union is just a savvy merger or a love that will last a lifetime.
