VIGILANT VOWS

A fake marriage to save my nephew becomes dangerously real when the man I've secretly loved proves he'll risk everything for me.

Cora
One phone call shattered my world—my sister's dead, and I'm suddenly the guardian of a two-month-old nephew I didn't know existed.
At twenty-four, I'm fighting for custody against my sister's abusive husband in a Texas courthouse, and I'm losing.
The court wants stability.
A two-parent home.
Everything I can't give Elias on my own.
Then my boss—the gorgeous, untouchable Jason Georgiou—offers me a solution: marry him.
It's supposed to be temporary. Just for the custody battle.
Except nothing about the way Jason holds Elias feels fake. And the heat between us is becoming impossible to ignore…

Jason
I've loved Cora from the moment she walked into my office, but I never thought I deserved her.
Now she needs me, and I'll do whatever it takes to protect her and Elias—even if it means putting a ring on her finger and pretending this marriage is just for show.
But there's nothing fake about the way I feel when she looks at me like I'm her hero.
Or how right it feels when Elias falls asleep in my arms.
Cora thinks this is temporary, that once the custody battle is won, we'll go our separate ways. But I'm not letting her go.
This marriage might have started as a lie, but I'll fight to make it real…
