About this listen

Duet narration by Joe Arden and Stephanie Nemeth-Parker

Now a number one Amazon Kindle store best seller

When Luca Windsor's secretary suddenly quits her job shortly after his family forces him into an unwanted engagement, he sets out to solve both problems.

By secretly marrying his secretary, Valentina, instead.

The rules are simple:

  1. Don't fall in love
  2. Keep their marriage a secret at work
  3. Share a bed every night

It was meant to be a straightforward and mutually beneficial deal, but with each day that passes, it becomes clearer to Luca that the one thing Valentina wants is the only thing he can never do:

Letting her go.

Publisher's Note: Each book in the Windsors series features a different Windsor sibling, and as such, each book can be listened to as a standalone. The Temporary Wife contains a guaranteed happily-ever-after and no cheating.

English reviewer - I I know this won’t be everyone’s opinion

Loved the story, I think the narrators did an excellent job BUT I found myself getting really frustrated at the pronunciation of wouldn’t, couldn’t and didn’t. They were pronounced by the female narrator as wutn’t, cutn’t and ditn’t and it just grated the more the book went on.
