Betrothed (Dane)

Claire Finn agrees to marry aging producer Arthur Carter for one reason only: status. And the money isn't so bad, either. Connections to Hollywood? Check. But not only is Arthur old enough to be Claire's grandfather, but he's a known philander who goes as far as fooling around with a hot young starlet at the engagement party. Claire fires back by picking up the first handsome stranger she sees. Jake is game for a round of seven minutes in heaven if she is...What should've been a regrettable one-time fling turns into hell on Earth when Claire finds out that Jake is actually Jacob Carter, a member of her future family. And the father of her unborn child. It's all fun and games until gold-digging Claire is knocked up with the wrong guy's baby.
