Hes the ice-cold lawyer who needs a fake fiancée. Im the broke girl who needs fifty grand. What could possibly go wrong?
Everything. Everything could go wrong.
Elliot Carrington is six-foot-three of pure, uptight corporate perfection. His suits cost more than my rent, and his schedule is color-coded to the minute.
Until one tiny lie blows up in his perfect face.
Now Mr. Control Freak needs a fake fiancée for a couples retreat to save his career, and hes offering me fifty thousand dollars to play the part.
Did I mention Im broke? Like, eating-ramen-for-every-meal broke.
So I say yes. Its just one weekend of pretending to be madly in love with a man who looks at me like Im a wrinkle in his pristine world.
I didnt expect his hands to be so warm. I didnt expect his eyes to soften when I laugh. And I definitely didnt expect to find myself pressed against the wall of our cabin, his mouth hungry on mine, wondering if this is still just pretend.
One fake relationship rule after another shatters between us. His carefully constructed walls come crashing down, and suddenly Im seeing the man behind the power suit.
But when the weekend ends and reality crashes in, were left with the wreckage of lies weve built and feelings neither of us planned for.
Now Im wondering if fifty grand was worth the price of my heart.
Because faking it with Elliot Carrington was easy. Its the real part that scares me to death.
A sizzling, opposites-attract romance featuring a uptight alpha hero whos about to be undone, the sassy woman who breaks through his walls, and a fake relationship that gets all too real. No cliffhangers. Just scorching chemistry and a happily ever after that will leave you begging for more.
