Their marriage was supposed to be pretend—until the heat got real. Redfish, Texas cop Maggie Barnes never expected motherhood to land in her lap—literally. But when she finds an abandoned newborn next to her cruiser, she knows she’ll do whatever it takes to give baby Grace a home. Even if it means roping her best friend, Tucker Jones, into a temporary marriage. Tucker’s a confirmed bachelor, not a daddy-in-the-making—but saying no to Maggie has never been his strong suit. What’s one little fake wedding between friends? But when kisses meant to fool the world turn all too real, and a pretend marriage blazes hotter than a Texas heat wave, Maggie and Tucker discover the hardest thing about their fake union might be letting it end. *originally part of the Redfish Chronicles series
