Tamsin and Mason
Tamsin tries to escape her family by going by Tana. Her father is powerful, but he mismanaged money. She is caught, and Mason presents her with an opportunity to bridge the two families. Mason's family will supply the funds, and the Denton name (Tamsin's family name) will provide respect and fear to Mason as he becomes a part of her family. Mason blackmails her with harming her brother and disclosing he is alive. She agrees to marry him in name only, and the first two years they don't consummate their marriage. When in public, they pretend to be a happy couple, but behind closed doors, they live their separate lives. Mason's father is a threat to Tamsin, and Mason can't kill him; things escalate to provide a romantic suspense vibe, and it draws Mason and Tamsin together. Overall, I enjoyed the story, plot, suspense, and steamy scenes.
