Ever heard the one about the rom-com princess who gets swept off her feet by her fake fiancé?
Yeah, that's not my story.
I'm an actress whose reputation is currently circling the drain, thanks to a string of public relationship disasters. All I want is to adopt a baby and leave my tabloid trainwreck days behind me.
When the adoption agency doubts my ability to provide a stable home life, I agree to a fake engagement with a guy who screamed "PR-approved."
Easy enough-until Archer Corbett blows it all to pieces.
He's a broody, hockey-playing winemaker who makes grumbling an art form. He also hates my fake fiancé-pretty sure "douchebag" was in there somewhere-and doesn't care who knows it. But when Archer rescues me on the side of the road and keeps me safe, I discover there's more under his scowl than grunts and muscles.
A lot more.
Turns out, Archer has a guarded heart, a fierce loyalty to his family, and a self-sacrificing streak a mile wide. He's also infuriatingly hot-and impossible to resist. One stolen kiss turns into carwash-steamy nights and a bond I didn't see coming. But there's a problem: he doesn't want kids, and I can't imagine a life without them.
Our lives don't fit together. Our dreams are miles apart. But what if Archer's exactly what I need to rewrite my story? And what if I'm the one to thaw his frozen heart?
If only this were a movie, I might get the happily ever after I've always wanted.
Love You Always is a standalone romance with a HEA, and it's the anticipated final book in the Buttercup Hill series.
