Your Heart Only

Summary:

It was meant to be a one-night stand, a one and done. However, as Marisa Price and Aidan Graywolf discover, life never plays fair.

Marisa’s academic career is about to soar with the discovery of secret letters handed down through her family telling of a love affair between Shakespeare and his black mistress. A divorce has left Marisa with trust issues and her personal life void of romantic entanglements, which suits her just fine. At least that’s what she believes until the day Aidan knocks on her door.

When Aidan arrives at Marisa’s doorstep to claim his daughter he realizes she isn’t the only reason he’s there. He’s come to claim her mother’s heart as well. Marisa’s proposal of a marriage of convenience with a surprise celibacy clause is unexpected, and gives him an opening he needs to begin his campaign. For Aidan, nothing short of winning Marisa’s love will do.

Can proximity and an unforgettable passion help this pair overcome the past to find true love? Or, did Shakespeare get it all wrong?
