What if the only thing worse than lying... is falling in love for real?
Emory: Youngest brother. Hopeless romantic. Professional disaster.
I didn't mean to lie to my family. I really did have a boyfriend-once. But when he dumped me, I didn't want to admit that yet another of my relationships had failed. Only now, I'm supposed to bring said boyfriend to my brother's wedding, and I'm totally screwed.
Enter Tate Alexander-ridiculously handsome, devastatingly confident, and heir to a billion-dollar, conservative media empire. Tate is straight. Tate is untouchable. And for reasons I still don't fully understand, Tate has offered to play my boyfriend until the wedding is over.
It was supposed to be pretend. A few convincing handholds. A few staged kisses. One shared bed that definitely wasn't part of the original plan.
But the way Tate looks at me doesn't feel pretend. The way he says my name doesn't feel fake. And the way he touches me, when no one's watching? Way, way too real.
I've always believed in love. I just never thought someone like Tate would choose me. Do I protect my heart and walk away? Or trust him enough to leap into the unknown...
