Bella Chatham will lose everything - her veterinary practice, her animal shelter, and even her home - if she can´t find another source of income, fast. So when her best friend signs her up for the hot new reality television show, Can You Beat a Billionaire, Bella accepts the challenge and hopes against hope she can win the $10 million prize. If she doesn´t, it´s bye-bye pet clinic and shelter, bye-bye Chance Creek, Montana, and hello to marriage to the billionaire for a year! Evan Mortimer, billionaire, can´t believe he´s reduced to competing in a television contest to win a wife. Unfortunately, it´s the only foolproof way to secure his position as head of Mortimer Innovations. At least he´ll be able to dump his ´´spouse´´ at the end of the year; he´s much too busy to be tied down to a country bumpkin cowgirl. Bella doesn´t expect her adversary to be handsome - or funny, or compassionate - but Evan´s all three, and he´s proving a tough competitor, too. When they end up sharing a tent - and a sleeping-bag - her body betrays her with a longing so deep it cuts her to the core. Still, this cowgirl must stay strong. If Evan uncovers her secret fears, he´ll use them to win the contest - and then he´ll own her for a year. She´ll be out of luck, out of cash, and stuck being Mrs. Mortimer until he kicks her to the curb. Too bad she can´t decide which is worse - winning the show and losing Evan forever, or losing the show and only being his temporary wife. Evan can´t believe he´s falling for the one woman who doesn´t want him. This cowgirl´s not impressed by his money, his name, or his inability to sleep in a tent with her for an entire night, but every look and touch she gives him sends his desire through the roof. With a director determined to use his claustrophobia to make him look like a fool, and an adversary so sexy he can hardly see straight, he´ll need all his savvy to come out on top. 1.
