Little white lies!
Damon DeMorney was the last man on earth Mercy Stewart wanted to marry. He was arrogant, overbearing and, well, just plain grumpy! But her grandpa was determined to see her settled down with a husband, and telling him she had married Damon seemed to put his mind at rest.
As far as Damon was concerned, if Mercy had told everyone she was his wife - then that's what she would be! Mercy was about to find out that it didn't matter how small, or white, the lie was - you always paid for it in the end....
