Really Good Story

This is the first book I have read in this series (Dynasties: The Ashtons) Megan Ashton is the daughter of ruthless millionare Spencer Ashton. She is the event planner for the family empire and meets millionare businessman Simon Pearce while planning his upcoming wedding. Simon is described as over 6 ft, with smoky gray eyes and dark hair, six pack abs and muscled long legs and too gorgeous to be true. Don't know who the cover model is but he pretty much fits the description. Simon Pearce is marrying for convenience not love, because he is afraid that if emotions get involved in his marriage he could end up in divorce. However, his bride deserts him at the altar. Knowing this could be bad for his business, Simon asks wedding planner Megan to marry him and offers her anything she wants to do it. Megan is being pushed into an unwanted marriage by her overbearing father and sees this as the opportunity to get him off her back. She agrees to a year long marriage in which he must remain faithful. He agrees but says it must be a real marriage because he will not do without sex for a year. These two find out once they're married that there is an underlying attraction there that is too hot to deny. When they sleep together they both realize this is different than either of them have ever experienced. They fall in love with each other and cannot deny that they were meant to be. However, neither one will admit they love the other until the other one says something. The thought of ending the marriage in one year terrifies them. When Megan's father brings a scandal down on their family, Megan decides to leave Simon to keep from harming his business in any way. Of course, Simon fights back. This book was great and if it is an indication of what the series is like I will probably buy the rest of them.

Covenient marriage

Front back cover: Millionaire Simon Pearce's bride-to-be left him standing at the altar and wedding planner Megan Ashton was dumbfounded when she was asked to fill in. Literally. Be Simon's bride. For a year. For business reasons only. Her shock soon gave way to reason: what better way to escape her father's domination than by marrying a stranger! By day Simon escorted Megan for the benefit of nosy society watchers, but by night she was his willing bedmate. Their lovemaking was wild and reckless, and the always-in-control Simon was soon spiraling out of his binding boxers. But when family scandals shattered their lusty illusions, Simon had to choose: marriage for a year, or marriage forever.
