Zoe Lane's secret office romance ended the moment her boss, Ryan Maxwell, announced his engagement-to the CEO's daughter. In front of the entire company. Humiliated. Betrayed. And out for blood. When Carter Everhart, the ruthless CEO and Ryan's future brother-in-law, offers Zoe an unexpected alliance, she sees her chance. Carter despises Ryan as much as she does, and he has a proposal: pretend to be his, make Ryan jealous, and watch him squirm. It's supposed to be fake.
A calculated game of revenge between two people who can't stand each other. But Carter isn't the cold, unfeeling businessman Zoe expected. Behind the icy facade is a man who's fiercely protective, devastatingly loyal, and completely irresistible. Every staged touch ignites something real. Every fake kiss makes her forget why this was ever just pretend. The plan was simple: make Ryan pay. The problem? Zoe's falling for the wrong man.
Again. Only this time, Carter Everhart might just be the right kind of wrong.
