His Indecent Proposal by Lynda Chance is a Harlequin Presents type romance where the hero is this uber-alpha male who wants his way and won't take no for an answer. The set up is somewhat ridiculous where David needs to marry quickly so he can keep control of company he's already running. He finds the wife he needs in the accounting department where Jenna works. Jenna is barely making ends meet because she has $100,000 in college loans to pay off, but she makes everyone believe she never went to college because she needed the job and is overqualified. If Jenna agrees to marry him, he'll give her $100,000, which will solve her money issues. Jenna thinks they'll only be married for a short time, but then David gets a taste of Jenny's luscious body and he decides divorce is no longer an option.His Indecent Proposal could have been so much better if it was longer. It's only 21,000 words, and even though the chemistry between David and Jenna is great and the love scenes excellent (even with the annoying head jumping back and forth between the two main characters) things come to a close too quickly and everything is resolved in a very unrealistic manner. I felt unsatisfied because the ending is so sudden and swift.Katiebabs
