Editorial Review: A proposal she had no choice but to accept . . .
Though Eli Grayson is one of the most handsome, charming, and intelligent men in Grayson Grove, no one will take a chance on a confirmed bachelor. Unwilling to give up his dreams, Eli convinces his friend Jewel to pose as his wife. Their masquerade is to last just one night . . . but when word gets out, Eli and Jewel must tie the knot to save his career—and her reputation.
Became a love she never expected . . .
Angry at being forced to turn her life upside down, Jewel never imagined that a white-hot passion would consume her once she and Eli became husband and wife. Sharing a bed has turned their prim friendship into a sensuous love affair . . . but when a woman from Eli's past returns to stir up trouble, he and Jewel will learn just how far they'll go to protect the precious gem of their newfound passion.

Rating: - Makes you want to hold on...
Ok, I'm a huge Beverly Jenkins fan and she has not disappointed me yet. We all know that one lie will lead to the next and so on and so forth. But to have a fib turn your world upside down and in a good way is delightful. Jewel was pure, innocent, and a smidgen of naivete. Eli was worldly, handsome, and very sure of himself. Imagine all the insecurites that a woman would have who believes that there is no way she can compete with what she thinks a man wants; and how can a man assure this woman that ... Read More
Rating:  - Indecent proposal?
Former editor, Eli Grayson has been overtly wooing women since he was sixteen-years-old. That first encounter as a naive boy severed ties with his cousin for over sixteen years, and set the tone for his philandering. At thirty-four he has made amends with his cousin and finds that his wanderlust is not as fulfilling. Eli is trying desperately to focus on business and a future. He has been contacted by a prestigious Nationally Black syndicated newspaper big-wig, from Chicago, about reopening his press. ... Read More
Rating: - I am feeling this book
Eli Grayson knows how to treat a woman. He has so much respect for Jewel and treats her like the Jewel that she is. She taught him how to love and he taught her how to make love. The twist and turns in the book had my mouth wide open and reading into the night. The part where Jewel and Eli were talking about if they will ever see a black man become president in their lifetime blew me away. I had to put the book down and contemplate. This could happen in my lifetime and I felt so proud because we have come ... Read More
Rating: - When Love Comes.....
This was my first read by Beverly Jenkins and a first for historical romance; however not my last. I really did enjoy the story of Jewel and Eli...those sex scenes were definitely HOTT! I really enjoyed how Ms. Jenkins dropped the historical facts and books in this novel, books that I will be picking up. However, this book was the kind of book that you took everywhere with you, could put it down always knowing that you were in for a treat when you did pick it up. I especially liked the way this book depicted ... Read More
Rating: - Jewel
Great book. I am a huge fan of Beverly Jenkins and love her historical romance books. This book is very interesting and brings characters from some of her previous books. The historical content is always on point and of course the romance part of her stories is always the icing on the cake. This book, as any other of her books is well worth its weight in gold.
