Separate Lives

by Caroline Jantz

HR 2793 Was it marriage for money or love? Gwen Shaughnessy’s marriage to Brad Robilliard, the cold, controlled founder of Robilliard Enterprises, was a business deal strictly for money. If they stayed together for one year, Brad's uncle, a misguided matchmaker, promised to solve both their financial problems. Gwen filled Brad’s ordered life with domesticity and fun, while he awakened a range of new emotions in her. Unintentionally, yet inevitably, they fell in love. It should have been perfect. But doubts and the very contract that had brought them together now threatened to drive them apart.
