MOI copy
There are three things you need to know about Kat Tanner (aka Kathleen Tyson. . . and yes, she is *that* Kathleen Tyson): 1) She’s determined to make good decisions, 2) She must get married ASAP, and 3) She knows how to knit.
Being a billionaire heiress isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. In fact, it sucks. Determined to live a quiet life, Kat Tanner changed her identity years ago and eschewed her family’s legacy. But now, Kat’s silver spoon past has finally caught up with her, and so have her youthful mistakes. To avoid imminent disaster, she must marry immediately; it is essential that the person she chooses have no romantic feelings for her whatsoever and be completely trustworthy.
Fortunately, she knows exactly who to ask. Dan O’Malley checks all the boxes: single, romantically indifferent to her, completely trustworthy. Sure, she might have a wee little crush on Dan the Security Man, but with clear rules, expectations, and a legally binding contract, Kat is certain she can make it through this debacle with her sanity—and heart—all in one piece.
Except, what happens when Dan O’Malley isn’t as indifferent—or as trustworthy—as she thought?
Excerpt:
Staring at his chin, because I couldn’t quite lift my eyes any higher, I cleared my throat. “Should we get ready for bed?” “Sure,” he said, his voice a rumble. Dan’s eyes were on me, I felt the weight of them. My hands came to the hem of my skirt and I hesitated, feeling winded for some reason. Sneaking a glance at him, I immediately wished I hadn’t. His gaze was watchful, but it was also unmistakably hot in a way that seemed at once both avaricious and accusatory. The vice tightened around my lungs. Kiss him! Just freaking kiss him! You want numbered steps? Fine. You kiss him- check. He kisses you back- check. Then you make out- check. Check the boxes. I licked my lips, balling my hands into fists at my sides again, preparing to follow my hasty list. But then he said, “Undress me.” My breath caught. On instinct, my eyes lifted and collided with his in much the same way our bodies had collided at the top of the stairs just moments ago. Jarring. Startling. Thrilling. This time I couldn’t look away because this time I was falling. He made no move to catch me. “What? What did you say?” His eyes narrowed, which served only to increase the intensity of his gaze from smolder to inferno. “Take my clothes off.” I stared at him, licking my lips again, and shaking my head. That wasn’t one of my steps. Lifting my chin, I moved to kiss him. He leaned to the side, evading me even as his eyes dropped to my mouth. “Take off my shirt and I’ll give you a kiss.” He’d used his naughty-secret voice. An explosion of heat erupted in my belly, and now I was hot all over. I couldn’t figure out if the heat was embarrassment or arousal or both. He didn’t give me a chance to figure it out. His hands lifted and he undid his cuffs; then they moved to the top button of his shirt. “You better take over,” he said darkly, “or else you’re not getting that kiss.” LIVE01

****** MY REVIEW ******

Marriage of Inconvenience Penny Reid brings herKnitting in the City series to a full close. Over the course of the series it became a forgone conclusion who Dan would end up with and finally, FINALLY we have Kat and Dan's story in our hands. Marriage of Inconvenience is a story years’ worth in the making. It’s a story that brings the whole series full circle, brings together the entire Knitting family and made me fall even more in love with Dan and Kat. This book , even though it is part of a series, can be read as a standalone. Kat needs to get married but the problem is that Kat isn’t dating anyone. The thing is, Kat needs to make sure her future husband she ends up with knows exactly what he is getting himself into when even her closest friends don’t know what Kat’s life is really like. This is when Dan enters the picture. Kat has been in lust/love with Dan for years. But they had a “thing” happen back about 2 years before. Really, it was just one horrible night together and ever since Kat hasn’t been able to look him in the eye. When they were back in each other’s lives, they had a lot of awkward moments between one another. Dan was a bit reserved just like Kat but he didn't have such a hard time opening up compared to Kat and watching how Dan went about breaking down Kat’s walls was oh so hot and cute. Also, what I enjoyed was reading how Dan and Kat reconnected , even though these two were so stubborn. They refused to see what was right in front of their faces and that they were made for each other. When you have the heiress and the ex-con as the main characters for the final fabulous story in the Knitting series, you know this is going to be epic. I don’t want to give away any spoilers so I will just say, this is one fantastic, epic read in the Knitting in the City series with visits from previous characters who drop in to help make this one awesome final read in a fabulous series. Dan and Kat make for great main characters who are sassy, sexy, stubborn, and humorous. I know I needed some tissues to make it for the last pages in the book and was so sad to know this was it but what a way to go out…in knitters style.

My Rating: 4.6 stars *****
“I received an advanced copy of this book from the author at no cost to me."
