A Reason for Marriage
It's been six years since Jamie walked in on her lover, Jake Brierton, in bed with another woman--and walked right back out that door and out of his life. But even though Jamie has spent years working on her successful decorating business, she's never been able to fully exorcise Jake from her mind. He is, after all, her stepbrother....

When her stepdad becomes ill, Jamie is reunited with Jake on their way home for Christmas. She is shocked when Jake proposes marriage--a marriage designed to make their family happy.

But when the ceremony is over, and their honeymoon in a cozy Swiss chalet begins, Jamie wonders what kind of marriage she's destined to have with the man who once broke her heart...and could easily do it again!

She ran away from love--only to live a lie!

For six years, Jamie worked hard to forget Jake. The lad who was her stepbrother grew into the man she loved, and it hurt to remember why she had had to run away.

For six years, Jamie projected the glossy facade required by her decorating business--but inside, her feelings were unchanged.

Now Jake was on the scene again, claiming the spark between them had never died. But why now? Their present could never be like their past-unless there was something Jamie didn't know ....
