Aspen
My mail-order bride company has been a huge success in Temptation Ridge, thanks to Wilder and his ability to talk so many of the single mountain men in town into signing up.
His easy-going charm and fun nature are what I love about him the most. Yes, I’m in love with Wilder, but he only sees me as a newcomer to town that he’s helping out as a friend.
With Wilder’s help, I’ve developed a new feature for my mail-order bride company called “Date Night in the Mountains”, where they can choose from going camping together, attending a pottery class, or even salsa dancing classes at the community center. It will give the mountain men and their potential brides an option to date before taking the giant leap into marriage.
Making sure the dates will be successful, I’ve decided to try them out first, once again with Wilder’s help. With each fake date, I’m finding it harder and harder to remember that we aren’t a real couple.

Aspen is new to town, trying to build her company and a name for herself in the matchmaking world. I’d give anything to make her mine, but for now, I’ll help her follow her dream as a friend until she’s ready for more.
Fake dating her is almost too much to handle. I’m not sure how much more I can take before I finally crack and make her mine for real.
