Sometimes fate needs a little help…

Jonah Wallace knows what it’s like to grow up without love. Despite having more money than the Queen of England, his childhood was cold and stale as he grew up in boarding schools. He’s dedicated his life to helping homeless and displaced children find the love and support they need by creating the Haven House Foundation, work that resulted in him being Knighted by the Queen.

Now that he’s living in America, his work is going along just fine…until his grandfather gives fate a little nudge by insisting he take a wife before he can inherit.

Coffee shop owner, Maggie Bonelli, is pregnant and the baby’s dad has gone AWOL. She knows too well the pain of growing up without a daddy. So when Jonah Wallace comes into her shop proposing marriage for a year, she takes him up on his offer, even if it’s only for a year.

Jonah, got left at the alter. Only marring for convenience. Wanting to keep his family estate. Trying to find away to keep his family estate, he stumbles into Maggie’s Cafe.

Maggie and Jonah struck up a deal. Maggie would marry Jonah, so he could keep the Family estate, and Jonah would give his last name to Maggie’s baby. Because Maggie said it was hard for growing up with no father, all the kids at school picked on her. Jonah and Maggie slowly fall in love with each other are trying to hide even from themselves, Because their deal was to stay married for one year.

Their relationship is sweet. The way they act together you can see they are  a perfect fit for each other. Knowing Maggie doesn’t want any of his money he starts up a trust fund for the baby, for after they get the divorce.

The secondary characters were amazing. The way all the characters interacted, was great i could feel there connections.

The romance between Maggie and Jonah was sweet and slowly. They were both afraid of loving the other for fear the feelings wouldn’t be returned. The sex scenes were sweet.

I think over this is a very good book.
