A frequent conclusion to Madame Evangeline's one night's stand is marriage or a serious commitment. However, this time, the marriage comes first, then getting to know one another, admiration, great sex, and finally comes love. While this resembles an old-fashioned arranged marriage, I'm pretty sure most of those weren't nearly so entertaining and hot to follow.Beth has longed for a large family all her life, but her first try at marriage was with a man who said all the right things before the marriage, but then backed away from their plan to have children. With her biological clock ticking, instead of a one-night stand, Beth agrees to marry, sight-unseen, a man who also wants to marry and fill their home with children.Christian has had bad luck with women. The scars of their betrayals run deep. This time, before he invests his heart, he wants to make sure the marriage will happen.So they marry.As trust and friendship form they slowly reveal themselves to one another--between their hot bouts of passion.Near the end of the short story, an unintentional action occurs which could tear them apart, but their newly found love saves them and brings the story to a satisfying conclusion.I enjoyed this new twist to the 1 Night Stands series. It wasn't just about hot sex, which it had, but took the unusual circumstances where two equal people enter into an arranged marriage for their need to have children. If you love unique plots, this story is for you.
