Annabella Mason of the St Louis Masons is expected to marry the perfect guy—aka a straight up business deal to save her dad’s company, that is. Before signing away her freedom, she books a flight to Anywhere But Here and ends up at a bar called The Drowned Rat, chatting up a handsome stranger and calling for shots of tequila--this delightful drink she's never had before. And delightful drinks you've never had before may or may not get you accidentally married to handsome strangers at bars.

Ian Jackson has no interest in playing the marriage game again. After his first wife ran off with the town butcher—the town butcher!—he lost all faith in true love and other maniacal myths. So when he suddenly wakes up married to a gorgeous stranger, he knows exactly what to do--call his judge friend and get the thing annulled. Only, His Honor is not so amused by the circumstances and requires that the two live together for 30 days before he'll annul the marriage.

Can Annabella's high society heels survive Ian's small town grouchiness for 30 days—without actually falling for each other?
