But Daddy thinks I’m not CEO material, because I’m happily single. My brother suggests I bring his hockey-star best friend as my fake date to the upcoming executive retreat. Clock is ticking. I’ve got no choice but to ride out this BS. When I meet Ken Branch right outside Dad’s mansion, ready to walk in holding hands, my stomach drops. ...

I discovered I was switched at birth and my world shattered. Now I’m fake engaged to the son of the family I always believed was mine. The only man I shouldn’t touch—and the only one I burn for. Logan LaRue is hot as hell and knows it. Funny too. A New York billionaire hockey star with a line of fans who DM him 'Marry me.' He has nothing in common with a nerdy small-town vet like me. And everything that was rightfully mine. To uncover the truth—and infiltrate the families we were taken from—we pretend to be engaged. It’s supposed to be simple. Temporary. Controlled. But the way ...

“Love at First Flush.” Perfect title if our love story ever becomes a book. I met Ivy when she was hiding from her ex and I was dodging my mother. Before I even saw her face, I was hooked—by her innocence, her laugh, the way she saw me beneath the cocky armor. Not the hockey star, not the Whitmore name. Me. The connection was real. Our hookup was electric. When her smug ex mocked her, I blurted out: “I’m her fiancé.” And just like that, we were fake engaged for the rest of the trip. Every challenge we tackled together made it harder to pretend. When I told my sister I fell for ...

It's always been just me and my girl, Stanley Puck. Now I'm fake engaged to a fierce vet who hates me, to win a team dog contest. And winning isn't about the $100,000 prize anymore. It's about her.

When I enter dog show competitions, it's not for the cameras. I have my reasons. What I don't have is time for distractions—especially not a sexy small-town vet. Morgan Bailey. With her rescue dog, ...

I won a $620,000,000 lottery. Big enough to buy a third of Congress. But what to do when the life I've always dreamed of can't include the man I love? Finally, all my fantasies can come true: 1. Text my boss "I QUIT!" (all caps). 2. Walk into Fairwick High's 10th anniversary looking successful (not terrified). 3. Get the hell out and live life out of a suitcase. My bestie suggests bringing her brother to the reunion as my fake fiancé. “You’re a smart engineer, but as an NHL star, Ashton knows gold-diggers and bullies.” I agree. Because I stutter (and get wet) every time I imagine Ash...

Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo. Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido.

Definitely.

I thought he'd always be mine, even when I was forced to say goodbye. We were never meant to let go, but it happened anyway. Two years later, we were exactly where we'd always planned to be. I'd kept my promise. He'd forgotten all about his. Not only had he moved on, but the person he'd moved on with was my best friend, leaving me to begin college with a broken heart.
