Bad Boy Secrets: A Billionaires Fake Engagement Romance

I never planned to spill solvent on my ex’s brother… or end up fake‑engaged to the grumpiest billionaire alive. Gavin Eventide is all sharp jaw, cold stare, and a voice that turns my knees into bad decisions. I should hate him. I should run. Instead, every time he looks at me, something in me sparks—and burns. My life is already a mess of deadlines and disasters when Gavin offers me a deal that feels dangerous the second I say yes. Three months. Fake fiancée. No feelings. No touching. No chance in hell. Except he touches me anyway. Accidentally at first—his hand brushing mine, his palm settling at my waist during events, his body leaning too close during photoshoots. And then Chicago happens. One bed. One night. One snap of tension so sharp I forget every rule we made… and every reason I ever had to stay away from him. Somewhere between pretending and wanting, I fall for the man I swore I’d never trust. The man who kisses like he’s starving. The man who holds me like he’s afraid to let go. The man who ruins me with a single touch. But the past I tried to bury doesn’t stay buried. It resurfaces with teeth—threatening my career, our deal, and the fragile, impossible thing growing between us. Suddenly the man I never meant to want is the one I can’t imagine losing. Worst case? I lose him… and prove I was never enough to begin with. Best case? Gavin Eventide becomes the one thing I never thought I’d have again—something real.
