Romancing the wrong girl never felt so rightâŚ
The Billionaireâs Guide to The Marriage Deal, an all new, spicy, marriage-of-convenience romantic comedy, filled with delicious banter and steam from debut author Piper Marlowe, is out now and we have a look inside!

When my grandparents founded the Taylor Corporation, it was to make life better for future generations of Taylors.
But Grandma Sofia doesnât think said generations are trustworthy enough to take over.
âGet married and prove you have an eye to the future,â she said.
âIt’ll be easy,â she said.
But âeasyâ is not exactly the word Iâd use to describe the new Mrs. Easton Taylor. Phoebe isn’t exactly my type, which is the planâeasy to marry, easy to walk away from. She makes flashcards for fun. Sheâs mouthy, sexy, and uninhibited. Worst of all, I’m now stepfather to a cat named Roger.
Some would call it a marriage of convenience.
But what I got into is more of a convenience store arrangement . . . an overpriced, fast, knockoff version of the real thing.
So why do I actually like the cat? And why can’t I stop imagining something more real with my fake wife?

Excerpt
âMiss? Can you come over here for a second?â
Christ.
Even all the way across the clubhouse, I can see her eyes narrow at the gesture. I donât blame her. But she gamely scoops up the water I asked for and approaches.
âYou gentlemen need something else?â she asks, setting the glass down beside me. Her eyes find mine, and I flash an apologetic grimace.
âWhatâs your name?â Max recaptures her attention.
The wary expression never leaves her face. Clearly she thinks weâre about to complain to a manager or something. âPhoebe.â
âPhoebe.â Max turns on the thousand-watt smile his Midwestern family all share. âMy friend here will give you five grand to have lunch with him.â
Under the table, I kick him in the shin. To his credit, that smile doesnât even waver.
Phoebe narrows her eyes. âWhy?â
âWhy not?â Max shrugs.
âFor starters, because Iâm not a prostitute.â She turns back to me, her gaze shifting in the type of once-over Iâm more accustomed to giving than receiving. âAnd heâs not so hideous heâd need to pay a woman for a lunch date.â
My eyebrows rise. Did she just refer to me as only mildly hideous?
âSo, Iâm assuming the issue is terrible social skills. Still, five thousand seems excessive. Just hire a life coach, bud.â She settles her tray under her arm. âPretty sure that would cost a lot less.â Then she tilts her head. âAlthough, I did serve a whole table of them here last week, so maybe they charge more than I thinkâŚâ
âTold you,â Dylan murmurs to Max.
I need to pull this out of the fire. Otherwise, sheâs going to think I really am some socially incompetent psychoâor worse, that I was actually trying to buy sex.
âJust lunch,â I promise. âNothing a prostitute would do.â
She arches a brow. âProstitutes donât eat lunch?â
The assholes I call friends burst into laughter. Even I gotta fight to suppress a grin. Okay. So sheâs funny. Thatâs a start. A start to what? This is a terrible idea, remember?
I suppress my inner critic. âAn hour of your time. Five thousand dollars. Iâll write the check in advance if it makes you feel better.â
Suddenly, a look of understanding dawns on her face. âIs this an MLM?â
âMLM?â What the hell is that? I thought I knew all the major kinks. Is she into something even I havenât heard of?
Promising, whispers the side of me I definitely should not be listening to right now. The side that canât help noting the way sheâs standing, hip cocked to one side, and how it accentuates the curve of her narrow waist and makes her ass jut out even farther in those grotesque uniform slacks.
Never thought Iâd appreciate a uniform, but damn.
âYou know, one of those multi-level marketing schemes. You recruit me to sell fancy face serums, but first I have to spend the five grand you give me on buying a million myself, and then I have to convince all my closest friends to pour their life savings into buying them from me if I want to make any profitâŚâ
I frown. âWhy would I think you need a face serum?â
She shrugs. âI donât know what youâre into, big guy.â
I stare. No, she really, really doesnât. Because itâs pretty much the opposite of her. Sheâs mouthy, suspicious, argumentative. As an actual wife, I can already tell sheâd be a complete pain in the ass

đReviewđ
Easton was raised in a wealthy and affluent lifestyle and has been groomed to take over the family business. The only thing standing in his way is his grandmotherâs belief that she wants him settled in his personal life first. Desperate times call for desperate measures so he convinces Phoebe that a marriage of convenience would meet both their needs.
Phoebe is trying to balance working and finishing her education. Her finances are very tight so when Easton offers a solution, she canât say no. What she hadnât expected was that the wedding would be the easy part, and that the marriage would be when the hijinks really began.
Fun and flirty I enjoyed watching the relationship between Easton and Phoebe unfold as they realized that there is nothing pretend about their feelings for each other. The characters draw you in and there is a great cast of secondary characters, both human and animals, which make the story even better.
