Summary: A fake relationship with real consequences—will love be enough to heal the wounds of the past? Creed I’ve hit rock bottom. Dishonorably discharged, haunted by my time in the military, and freezing my ass off sleeping in the backseat of my car, I’m barely surviving. Then a chance encounter with enigmatic billionaire Avery Branson results in an unbelievable offer I can't refuse—pose as his boyfriend for his high-society family, and in return, I’ll get the money I desperately need. It sounds simple enough, but there’s one problem: I’ve spent my whole life pretending to be someone I’m not, and he's asking me to show the part of me I swore no one would ever see. But the more time I spend with him, the harder it is to remember why I'm pretending. He’s everything I shouldn’t want, but somehow, I can’t stay away. Avery Creed is the last person I expected to fall for—rough around the edges, emotionally closed off, and clearly running from something. But with my mother pressuring me to get married for the good of the family business, I needed someone who could play the part, and Creed was desperate enough to accept. I thought I could keep things simple, strictly business. But every time I peel back another layer of his armor, I want more. And I’m starting to think this fake relationship might be the most real thing I’ve ever had. If only his past didn’t threaten to rip us apart before we even begin.
