Wilks Beach Marriage is a Shore Thing

She's tough. He's golden. One dare later, they're hitched.I've sworn off love, so accidentally marrying a stranger after a friendly game of Truth or Dare? Worst. Case. Scenario. Never mind that Evander Young is a brilliant ER doctor with a dimpled smile that makes my heart race. News of our nuptials spreads through my small beach town like wildfire-only everyone thinks it's real after a long-distance romance. With my mom ecstatic that her grumpy, boxing-instructor daughter has finally found love, it looks like we're stuck playing house-at least for now. The thing is, happily-ever-afters aren't for people who avoid feelings like they're a knockout punch. But Van's golden-retriever energy keeps chipping at my well-forged armor, and the sizzling chemistry between us? Definitely not fake. When a family heirloom goes missing, Van and I team up for a midnight heist-sneaking through shadows, racing against time, and dodging a few close calls. Turns out, the real risk isn't the heist-it's falling for my accidental husband.
