I swore I would never fall for a lawyer. But those steel blue eyes, and greek god physique, has my heart second guessing. . Hired to decorate, I thought my job would be simple. Being required to work together could cause that to change. This silver fox that spilled my beloved morning elixir. And of course he is a lawyer. I don't have time for love, my career was always the focus. While this job has its perks, like a chateau for the weekend. The distraction of his finger tracing the top of his whiskey glass has my insides melting. Couches and tapestries are not the only things I will be picking out this weekend. My mysterious client that has yet to appear. And a picture that shows more than he is telling Could this be the one I have been waiting for? Or will he turn out to be someone different altogether.

He’s the Air Force’s ladies’ man And I’m the girlfriend who’s pretending to date him. My friends think I’m dating my dreamy college ex. But it’s all a ruse. Or at least, I thought it was… On the dance floor I find myself pressed up against him. A rough uniform against my body, but a gentle hand on my face. He was supposed to be a distraction… But his eyes say something different. They look hungry for more than I’d agreed to give. And there're so many quiet corners we could just slip away into… I never thought we could turn something fake into something real. If only he would stop telling me it’s all pretend. I’d like to pop off all the buttons on his uniform..

I’ve been feeling my dad’s best friend’s eyes undressing me… …and I’ve been liking it. He’s always looked so big, but these days I can’t help but notice the details of his bigness… Giant, rough hands, Chiseled, stubbled chin, Huge, veined arms… I have to stop wanting him. Not just because he’s my dad’s bestie - but because he has a past, as the townsfolk say. Dad says he used to be in a gang - USED to - and he’s not like that anymore… … but I’ve heard the gangs around here don’t like it when members leave. Would it really be so bad if I let him claim me the way we both want him to?

Owen isn't just some random silverfox, he’s my new boss –grumpy yet so damn irresistible. At work, I catch his gaze with hunger in his eyes and I can’t seem to get that wild night out of my head. So of course, I said yes when he asked me to the Annual Gala. I assume it's his way of apologizing for being such a bosshole. But just when things couldn't get more complicated, imagine my surprise when I find out the real reason he asked me...

Never fall for your grumpy billionaire boss, especially when you’re in a fake marriage with him. I can't stand Alex Merrieli. The way he struts into the office in his Armani suits like he’s God’s gift to women. I have to work for him every day. If only I could stop fantasizing about him at night. Then he has the nerve to move into the apartment next door and make me go to a charity event with him. I only go because it’s my job, but next thing I know I’m back at his apartment living every scorching fantasy I ever had..and more. I should have stopped there. But when Alex offers me his hand in fake marriage to secure his inheritance, I can’t refuse. This is a deal that could change my life, offering me the financial security I only dreamed of. It should’ve been easy, but things got complicated the more time we spent together. I started to see the man behind the mask and I don’t know if I am pretending any more.

Fake dating my infuriating grumpy billionaire boss is not what I signed up for. Our arguments are always heated. But not as heated as our one night stand. Big mistake. I had sworn off him after his devil touch made me sin. But with a body that sets me ablaze, he makes an irresistible offer. Play girlfriend. Now we are stuck on our way to his family's estate. I glimpse a side of Derek that he keeps hidden. The lines between charade and reality blur. But ghosts from the past haunt us. I wonder if this forbidden dance was ever real… …or whether we are on a collision course toward disaster.

The Deal is… he’s Richer, and my Husband for a Year. So, I paint full-time while the billionaire foots the bill. And he snags a mega-deal, to save his business. The catch is… we can’t stand each other. He’s a lot older, a dad, and his daughter wants to paint me out of the picture. Of course, I’ll win her over. But Stephen? Suddenly, his steely eyes and rocking-hot body fuel my fantasies. And the heat in his gaze clings to the curves of my body. I want to drop my panties and spice up his life. I thought we hated each other. I was wrong. But we’re nothing alike. Funny, that’s what I like that about him the most. Shockingly, our fake love has turned into real love. Can we both admit it…before it’s too late?
