Summary

Tilly Silver can get any horse to eat its curds and hay. But when her mouth begins to water for the soldier who's promised to marry her twin, can she convince her family to change what's on the menu?
 
 
 
Artillery “Tilly” Silver needs to get married, quick. If she’s not hitched in just a couple of weeks, her family will lose the ranch they've lived on all their lives. But when yet another date goes bust, she’s rescued by an unexpected hero, a man who is perfect marriage material, except for one thing—he’s already engaged to her twin sister.
 
 
 
Carter Shane agreed to marry a woman he’s never met. Getting close to his fiancée’s sister wasn’t part of the plan, but now Tilly is all he thinks about. Well, her and the addiction to pain medication he just can’t shake after a wartime injury. Getting clean is a lot more difficult than running off one of the jerks Tilly’s been dating, and when he steals a forbidden kiss, he realizes which twin he’s supposed to be with.
 
 
 
Between her sisterly loyalty and the secret he’s keeping, they’re off to a rocky start. And now Tilly’s stepmother is on a warpath, determined to prove all the Silver girls' marriages are fraudulent in order to gain the ranch for herself. If her stepmother can convince the judge of wrongdoing, the girls won't just lose their home and the horses they care for, they'll each lose the loves of their lives.
 
 
 
Find out if love can truly heal all wounds in this light-hearted, sweet romance of convenient arrangements that unfold into lasting love. His Pledge to Have is the fifth in a series of marriage of convenience tales featuring Wounded Warriors who are healed with the power of love.
Available since: 11/29/2021.
