Marley Jacobs is all about her self-care trips.
They’re a necessity when you work overtime as an editor-in-chief, have an overbearing mother, and are still recovering from a romance that nearly unraveled you.
Her trip to Hawaii is supposed to be quiet. Restorative. Solo. But things change when she bumps into the one man she thought she’d never see again.
Othello Kingston, distinguished and infuriatingly handsome, regrets saying “yes” to being the best man at his estranged cousin’s wedding. They haven’t spoken in years and for good reason.
Boarding the plane to Hawaii already feels like a mistake, until a pleasant surprise greets him before the flight ever leaves the ground.
When Marley and Othello’s worlds collide for the second time, neither of them can ignore the chemistry between them, although Marley wants to keep things strictly platonic.
She can’t risk another heartbreak. But when Othello’s moment of panic draws them into a fake relationship, the lines between performance and reality begin to blur.
