Author: Noelle Adams
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 20, 2016
Three years into a five-year marriage
of convenience, Jenn finds herself wanting something she never
thought she'd want from her laidback, ex-military husband. Sex--as a
much-needed release of tension from her high stress job. But weekly
sex with Nick, despite their careful parameters, is likely to get
messy eventually.
Ever since her father walked out on her
as a child, Jenn knows never to assume the people she loves will
stick around, so she's not about to trust Nick with her heart. She
vows to stay strong, no matter how much intimacy develops between
them in bed.
But what starts as a tension-reliever
soon becomes so much more, until it threatens both their practical
arrangement and the heart Jenn has worked so hard to keep safe.
Married by Contract is a standalone
contemporary romance novella (43K words).
And now he was smiling again—and
looking at her with an expression that was amused and slightly smug
and way too hot. “Well, then I can help you out, if you
want.”
“What? Help me with what?” She’d
completely stopped moving on the machine now. She was just staring at
him, excitement and anxiety both throbbing in her veins.
“Help
you work off your…tension.”
“That’s
crazy.”
“Why is it crazy?”
“Because…because
we don’t do that.”
“We could. I have some tension
myself, you know.”
“You do?”
“Oh
yeah.”
“And you don’t want to hire an
escort?”
“That doesn’t really do it for me.”
He’d stepped closer to her and now reached a hand out to help her
off the machine.
She took his hand and got off, feeling
like she might just melt into the floor. “So you think we
should…”
“Work off tension together. Why
not?”
“I…I don’t know.” She really didn’t
know why they shouldn’t. They were both adults, and they’d always
gotten along well. Sex didn’t have to be serious. She’d always
known that. In fact, she’d never had any sex that wasn’t casual
in her life. At least with Nick, she wouldn’t end up with those
sick feelings she used to get when she’d fucked someone she wished
she hadn’t.
Nick was smiling at her more fully now,
like he already knew her answer. “You want to, don’t you?”
“And
you want to?”
“Of course I do.”
“You
want…to have sex…”
“With you.”
