Jessica Randall is in a bind and needs someone to help her save her family’s land.  She turns to rancher Gabe Dumont and finds herself agreeing to a marriage of convenience and providing Gabe with an heir.  Jessica plans to keep their relationship going like a business arrangement and the two marry.  That’s when trouble starts.  No longer is Jessica able to look at Gabe as just a regular business partner.  Now she looks at him as her husband and while she fights her attraction to him greatly, she can’t help but realize that it’s a lost cause.  Gabe, on the other hand, is able to distance himself from Jessica because of past hurts. Hurts which influence the way he treats his wife.  Hurts which could mean the end of his marriage if he doesn’t watch out.

I first started reading Nalini Singh romances years ago.  I have yet to read one I haven’t liked and Bound by Marriageis no different.  Dramatic, highly packed emotions, sensuality to knock your socks off; Bound by Marriage had it all and I love every well written word.  In true romantic fashion, Ms. Singh once again has given me proof of her ability to write a truly wonderful romance.
