Publication date: June 15th 2023
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance
The marriage is fake, but the passion is real.
Famous for his last name, devilish Anthony Star-Hunter is the black sheep of the Star clan. He’s an expert at using his tall, dark, and handsome charm to get women into bed—the last remnant of his declining hard-party escapades.But the bucks are about to stop here. His grandfather’s will demands he marry to inherit his fortune. Anthony panics. Even with his bad boy allure, how the hell is he going to find a tolerable bride, like, yesterday?
The minute Sarah Pennington spots the tattooed muscles her new stepsister’s ex hides under his Italian suits, she rolls her eyes. Anthony is not for her. And with her father maybe headed to prison for a financial fiasco, she’s had enough bad male behavior. She’s responsible. She’s hard-working. She…can’t stop having naughty dreams about the sexy “celebutant.”
At a beach-side wedding, a drunken mishap throws Sarah into Anthony’s bed, and he’s intrigued. Can he convince her to give fake marriage a chance? Can she convince herself to keep her heart out of the deal?
Their slow-burn, un-love affair isn’t what either expect, but it might be what both of them need forever.

Cat gives this book 4 Meows with a 2 Purr heat index...
Hi Y’all! Come in and grab an appetizer and a mocktail while I tell you about this book I just read.
The title is Morning Story by Kris Jayne it is book 3 in the Lone Star Cross series. You don’t have to read in order to enjoy, it this was my first in the series, but I think I may go look up the other two. The cover is appealing and gives me a good image of Anthony. Then I read the blurb and it really got my interested because, fake marriage.
Who’s my favorite main character?
Sarah she is sweet, strong and Noble. Though she marries Anthony for money her reasons don’t make her look selfish or greedy.
Was there another character I liked and why?
Oddly, Cathie, Sarah’s stepsister and how she met Anthony and Anthony’s ex (curious now?).
The story has several settings. Texas, New York, Mexico and Italy. I Loved the honeymoon in Italy and would have loved to went along. But it was so well written and fun it felt like I was there. There are some twists and turns and lots of drama.
I liked the ending, it was a good HEA, and if you join the author’s newsletter you get an epilogue of after the 5 years.
How hot was the book?
It is a slow burn with good sexual tension and one or two on page sex scenes. I give it two purrs. Just right.
If you like fake marriage, friends to lovers, billionaires and sister’s ex- Boyfriend, you will like this.
Kris Jayne is a devoted writer, reader, and traveler, crafting addictive contemporary romance novels with heat and heart. She spends her days blissfully sweating out the writing process in the Dallas area with her dogs, Otis the Shih Tzu, Rocco the Terrier, and Red the Foxy Mutt.
