Mr. Cocky

By Leslie North

Theo Barnes isn't just a grumpy billionaire-he's a walking storm cloud with a yacht collection.

And lucky me, I'm the photographer hired to capture them all. But after one long day, I made a rookie mistake: I passed out on his bed, on his yacht.

The next thing I know he's standing over me, looking like he's about to toss me overboard.

If I'm Goldilocks, he's got the grouchiness of all three bears combined.

Now I'm expecting to be fired on the spot.

Instead, Mr. Cocky offers me a deal-an absurdly well-paid one. One day as his fake girlfriend. No PDA, no drama, just keep his meddling mother at bay. Easy enough, right?

Wrong. Because that first rule? We break it within minutes.

What was supposed to be a one-time gig turns into something much more complicated when his mom ropes me into a family wedding. And Theo, with all his cocky charm, insists I tag along.

Turns out, playing pretend has its perks-like kisses that blur the lines and scorching hot nights that break all the rules.

But fairy tales aren't real, and Goldilocks? She's got one big surprise for her grumpy billionaire.
