I absolutely enjoyed Stefanie and Emmet’s story in A Christmas Proposition by Jessica Lemmon, book three in her Dallas Billionaires Club series. Stefanie Ferguson usually acts without thinking of the consequences. Once again she finds herself embroiled in a scandal, one. Based on an off-handed comment, she decides getting married could be the answer to this dilemma; once more, not thinking things through. Emmett Keaton, her brother’s best friend and body guard, reluctantly agrees to help her, entering into what is supposed to be a temporary marriage. A secret Christmas Day wedding might just change the dynamics for the relationship Stefanie and Emmett have with her family, and each other. I loved Emmett; his strength, understanding and feelings for Stefanie. Stefanie was harder to like when it appeared she was a selfish, thoughtless, socialite. As the story progressed I was able to see another facet, the generous and compassionate Stefanie who really cared about her family and her reputation. Ms. Lemmon wrote a wonderful and emotional story that is not to be missed. She provided a tale rich with sexual chemistry, amusing banter, and endearing characters giving Stefanie and Emmett a chance at having a real marriage. I highly recommend A Christmas Proposition to other readers.
