In the wedding of the decade, Geraldine Glamorgan's millions were united with Steve Courtlandt's aristocratic name. Both young, handsome, vibrantly alive, they found themselves, "for better or for worse," bound in a glittering - and empty - marriage of convenience.

Then tragedy brought Steve the ownership of a ranch out West. Gamely, Geraldine went with him, forfeiting her income and defying her father's wishes, in order to live as a simple rancher's wife. Just as it seemed that their new life might at last bring them together, mysterious events endangered her safety and a misunderstanding threatened to wreck her new-found happiness.

A Place For Hope by JenniferJordyn

Sophie Green, shopkeeper turned match-maker, refuses to match vulgar, abusive Rhett Jones so he finds his own wife. Unless Sophie can stop the wedding. "That man’s got no business marrying anybody. There’s got to be some way to keep a woman from getting married." “She can’t get married if she already is married.” Sophie explained her plan. “Me? Pretend to be Rhett! That’ll be the day! Besides it’ll never work – don’t you suppose she’ll wonder when she hears the preacher say, ‘and do you, Noah Ingram?’” “I’ll talk to him about it. If I can get it taken care of, will you do it?” “If you can get the preacher to lie?” he said incredulously. The corners of his mouth lifted ever so slightly. Leave it to Miss Green to attempt the impossible. “You’ve got yourself a deal, Miss Green. If you can get the preacher to lie, I’ll marry her.” Was she not an orphan any more? Hope was an adult and once grown, the girls were turned out. It would be winter before long. Then what? “Seeking young wife to share frontier life with. Prefer brunette..."

Player by aspen2001

"Okay, then allow me to offer a pact." He says, immediately making me a mixture of terrified and suspicious. "You say that I'm a jerk; a bully. So, why not change that my way?" "I don't like where this is going-" I begin, but he cuts me off. "Just listen." He comes closer, seating himself next to me on the curb. "You've made me lose 3 hot dates, and in my books, that's unforgivable. There was Bunny, the girl at the party, the red headed girl from Geometry, and that Grateful Dead hippy chick from the parking lot." I start to feel uneasy, like Jake is going to make me do something I am not going to want to do. "I think that I deserve some fun." He suddenly notices my face and smirks. "Not that kind of fun." I let out a well-needed breath, not noticing that I was even holding my breath until now. "An agreement," He smiles widely, liking whatever he has come up with. "Here's the rules." He hands me a piece of paper that he was keeping in his jeans pocket. I unfold it and stare at the messy handwriting. Player's can- Sweet talk Play fight Talk 24/7 Tell each other good morning and good night every day Take walks together Give each other nicknames Hang out with each other's friends Go on dates Talk on the phone all night long Hold each other Kiss Hug And whoever falls in love first, loses (Nobody can be dating anyone during this agreement or else they automatically lose) (Winner gets the opposite player to do anything they want them to do)

After a highly contagious disease caused the downfall of mankind as they know it, married couple Sophia and Tom were forced to leave their home and seek a way to survive in more than ever unforgiving conditions, scavenging for food, collecting rainwater, migrating to the south for the winter, and fending off both hostile survivors and dangerously aggressive Infected. Being nomads made for rather unpleasant interactions with settled communities and pushed them into complete isolation. Their relationship grew each day more bitter, binding them only through the sheer inability to let go of life, no matter how brutal or dreadful it got. Unexpected sudden encounters will make them question their past, feelings, and motivations, as they navigate the ruins of their sense of self and of their close-to-failing marriage. "[...] in any case, destiny, or whatever higher power acting upon them, had a splendid way of forcing self and mutual reflection for the umpteenth time in about two weeks."

The Edge of Misery: The Mitchel Brothers Series Book Two by BritCYancey

** Picks up where The Edge of Hell (Mitchell Brothers Series Book One) left off** If there's one thing Declan Mitchell learned from watching his mama almost die from the heartbreak of losing his daddy to a war nineteen years ago, it was that a great and powerful love delivered an equally devastating heartbreak and suffering-the kind he had every intention of avoiding like the bubonic plague. And until traveling west to Idaho Territory and coming face to face with the mismatch-eyed, auburn-haired beauty, Wren McCrawdon, he believed he might succeed in carrying out his plans of never marrying. Molded by her traumatic journey west when she was twelve, twenty-four-year-old, accident-prone Wren McCrawdon's life on her family's ranch in Falcon Ridge, Idaho, is full of back-breaking work, beginning as dawn's first rays peek across the mountains and ending long after the sun sets when she can barely drag her weary bones up the stairs to her bedroom. But from the morning Declan Mitchell and his family arrive, her miserable existence becomes more bearable until tragedy strikes when all she sees are the harsh realities of loss and suffering. Concerned for Wren's safety and remembering how bitter the edge of misery was after his daddy died-Declan discovers he's willing to do anything he can to take it away from her... even if it means a marriage of convenience is the only suitable solution. There are only two problems: first, it's already apparent he's following in his mama's footsteps toward eventual heartbreak, and second he somehow has to convince Wren to agree.
