Rescuing enchanting stranger Rosie from a romantic scandal is honourable. Yet when it puts his deal in jeopardy, Matteo sees only one solution—making this English beauty his fake fiancée!

An outrageous festive engagement…

Tycoon Matteo Moretti has one goal this Christmas—to land the deal of his career. So, while rescuing enchanting stranger Rosie from a romantic scandal is honorable, when it puts his deal in jeopardy, Matteo sees only one solution. He’ll make this English beauty his fake fiancée!

To avoid her family’s overbearing scrutiny, Rosie accepts Matteo’s temporary proposal. Yet an unpredictable red-hot connection throws her emotions into overdrive! Rosie knows she’s wearing Matteo’s diamond only for show, but soon their relationship starts to feel deliciously and dangerously real…

CATHY WILLIAMS can remember reading Mills & Boon books as a teenager, and now that she is writing them she remains an avid fan. For her, there is nothing like creating romantic stories and engaging plots, and each and every book is a new adventure. Cathy lives in London. Her three daughters—Charlotte, Olivia and Emma—have always been, and continue to be, the greatest inspirations in her life.
