author: Lindsay, Rachel
description: He must never guess her true feelings
  
  As far as Adam was concerned, their marriage was a businesslike arrangement. Both had suffered the pain of rejection, and both had vowed to avoid any future emotional ties or commitment.
  
  "Our marriage stands a better chance of succeeding than one blinded by passion, " he had claimed, and his logic had convinced Julia.
  
  But somewhere along the way she fell in love with him and, knowing he could never return her feelings, was forced to act out a role that contradicted her loving nature.
