The Blackthorn Inheritance

A sunshiny bookworm's life explodes when her best friend's atrocious brother proposes in this steamy and electrifying romance by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Nicole Snow.

Big dreams come with bigger catches. Mine came wrapped in a merciless suit—Ethan Blackthorn. Billionaire tyrant. My bestie's older brother. Bane of my childhood and jackwagon of the century. Now he's my flipping fiancé. All thanks to a brutal six-month marriage clause in his grandfather's will.

He promised me everything to play along. An eye-popping payout. The bookstore of my dreams. Plus, a nice glittery Cinderella break from reality. But that's not what steals my breath away. He's taking this too seriously. He's kissing me like it means something. He's ready to declare war when other men dare look at me.

I don't understand. The conceited, incurable monster who used to make me cry now lives for my smiles and is making this so hard. Between his secrets and obsession, do I even stand a chance? How do I forget the vows we never made if they start feeling sacred?

A deliciously sweet and stormy standalone romance with a heart-pounding fight to ever after. Irresistible tropes inside: grumpy x sunshine, best friend's brother, marriage of convenience.
