GREEN CARD WEDDING

GREEN CARD WEDDING

The only way nanny Maggie Weller could remain in the country was by marrying her hard–headed boss, who was exactly the kind of irresistible bachelor she needed to avoid. But she would do anything to ensure his little girl's happiness even if it meant things would be a bit steamier around the Harrison household.

Alex had never considered himself husband material, but he knew his daughter couldn't handle losing her cherished nanny right now. So he vowed to stick to their short–term marriage contract and ignore the longings his new bride stirred in him. Unfortunately, he was beginning to realize his daughter wasn't the only one who might be needing Maggie on a more permanent basis .
