Escape to Ireland

Have you ever wanted to press the escape button on your life? Ruth Davenport writes about romance and happily ever after. But not from experience. After a heartbreaking rejection, she decides a change of scenery is needed. On a whim, she thinks Ireland is the place to go to write her next book. But when she arrives, everything that can go wrong does. In the middle of the night, she lands on the doorstep of an Irish pub in the middle of nowhere that belongs to an enigmatic Irishman. Sean Hughes needs a woman under his roof like he needs a hole in the head. His policy is to steer clear of all women in general. Besides, he's too busy running a pub and getting his dream business off the ground. He has no time to help pretty tourists. But he needs some quick cash, and she needs accommodation. A deal is struck that suits them both. As they spend more time together, they begin to see each other in a different light. Can they overcome their fears and take a chance on happiness?

It's a marriage of convenience for three months. But will it turn into something more? Rachel Parker is a problem solver for Bixby International. There is no problem that is too big or too small that she can't solve. Unfortunately, she can't seem to tackle the problems in her own personal life. Or lack of one. But when a unique problem lands on her desk, she quickly comes up with a solution that will make everyone happy. Or so she thinks. Thomas Yates, the 12th Earl of Glenbourne, needs a wife in less than a week. If he isn't married by his next birthday, he will lose the trust fund that runs his massive estate in Ireland. As a last resort, he hires an international problem solver. But when Rachel puts her own name forward, he can't help but wonder what her agenda is. But it's her conditions that have him rolling his eyes. It's only when she arrives in Ireland that Rachel turns the Earl's life upside down. She starts solving problems he didn't even know he had. The biggest problem is they're starting to fall for one another. But it's a business arrangement, and she's going home in three months. Different backgrounds. Different personalities. Different ideas about how things should be done. Opposites attract, but can they find common ground?
