A millionaire pretending to be a chauffeur to get out of a marriage pact, what could possibly go wrong?
Eleanora “Nora” Atwood is a spoiled heiress who has never shopped for groceries or paid her own credit card bill. When she wants access to a large portion of her trust, her parents make a decree: to get the money she will have to live in the real world for three months.
But there is one other way to gain access to the trust—she can marry. All she has to do is cash in the favor Anthony Carter, fellow heir, owes her.
Fritz—who hasn’t gone by the name Anthony since he broke free of the money world—takes advantage of her lack of recognition when he shows up at the airport after a camping trip and a hiatus from shaving to fetch Nora. When she assumes that he’s the Carter’s chauffer, he rolls with it, not realizing she’s going to be his next door neighbor. Fritz almost got trapped in a loveless marriage once before, and he’s not about to let it happen again.
Nora couldn’t be more fish out of water, microwaving tin foil and playing audiobooks for her plants. Fritz learns the hard way that opposites attract, as he gets suckered into volunteering to help her navigate her new, cruel world.
The more time they spend together, the closer Fritz comes to falling for the zany girl next door, but if he doesn’t find a way to tell her he’s Anthony Carter before she discovers his secret, he risks losing her forever.
