BLURB
There are four of them.
Four brothers in the Tempesta family, one of the most dreaded Mafia names in the world.
And I’ve been ordered to choose which one I’ll marry.
This sacrifice is the cost of my twin brother’s survival and I’ll pay it without hesitation.
For years I’ve tried to escape my family’s criminal legacy.
I should have understood this was always a fantasy.
It doesn’t matter that I moved to a different city or that I changed my name and stayed far away from the chaos I was born to.
In the end, I cannot outrun the obligations of blood.
With my brother’s life on the line, I’ll honor the deal that promises to keep him safe.
As a cruel favor, I’m allowed to pick which one of the fearsome Tempesta brothers I’ll walk down the aisle with.
One week among them is all the time I’m given to make up my mind.
Just one week in their vast ranch fortress in a remote corner of Wyoming to decide which of these formidable men I’ll agree to marry.
They are all different.
All gorgeous and seductive.
And all uniquely challenging in their own way.
But one of them stands out and fascinates me to the point of obsession.
Years ago, Julian Tempesta saved my life and now our intense physical attraction is undeniable.
Julian, as the charismatic eldest brother, is also the natural leader and protector, not a man who intends to use me and then callously crush my heart to pieces.
When Julian says this marriage will be real, I believe him.
I’m in far too deep by the time I understand the truth.
I’ve foolishly trapped myself in a devil’s bargain.
And now my ‘husband’ will be my undoing…

Meet Harlow James:
Steamy Romance Author
Harlow James is a pen name I use to protect my identity as a high school teacher. Keeping those two roles in my life separate is necessary, but also fun! It’s like a live two lives, and anonymity gives me the opportunity to be bold and take risks in my stories.
I stumbled upon romance novels in 2018 when I picked up Driven by Kristy Bromberg, and I was obsessed. I had just lost my grandmother too, so reading offered me an escape from reality and a chance to grieve on my own terms.
About a year later, I got an idea for my own book and started writing. I researched self-publishing and jumped in with both feet. I had no idea what I was doing!
But now I’ve built a business and hobby that I LOVE! I have an outlet that’s just for me. When I write, I’m not a mom, a wife, or a teacher…I’m a woman who gets to tell stories that no one else can.
My books are the perfect blend of heartwarming moments, full-bellied laughs, and PLENTY of steam to melt your Kindles 😉 And there are always elements of me sprinkled in to every character and story that I write.
When I’m not writing you can find me reading or spending time in my kitchen. I love to cook and feed my family and friends. Otherwise, you can find me watching comedy specials with my husband, camping with our kids, or taking naps. I live for naps 😉

Blurb:
Fletcher Adams is not just the man that stole my heart at fifteen and never gave it back.
He’s also my brother’s best friend, and now one of the most famous players in the NFL.
But now he’s back in Blossom Peak for our mutual friend’s wedding, and guess who are the maid of honor and best man?
That would be us.
I’ve spent the past twelve years ignoring what happened between us that fateful night, and avoiding him as much as possible when he did pop into town to visit.
But now he’s everywhere.
In my salon getting a massage to support my business.
Participating in yoga to support my family’s winery.
And even hacking into my phone to monitor my glucose—which makes me furious and also a little bit weak in the knees.
Then he finds out that my ex-fiancé never satisfied me in the bedroom, so he instantly volunteers for the job.
Turns out time couldn’t snuff the flames that still burned between us.
But Fletcher has demons from his past he hasn’t faced, the kind that you can try to bury but always manage to get washed up in a storm.
And this storm just might destroy us both.
There’s one thing we can’t deny however, even though we try—feelings still matter, even after all this time.
