Grumpy Billionaire’s Fake Fiancée: A Forced Proximity Enemies to Lovers Romance
Riley Hartman
A sapphire ring marks me as another asset in this billionaire's empire. But we're not engaged. We're estranged college exes faking forever to win a client.
I didn't know Nathaniel Caldwell owned my company.
Or that he blocked my promotion.
All I knew was the silence that fell when a client assumed we were a couple, and neither of us corrected them.
Being stuck together for weeks follows.
Family dinners with our girls, watching them grow closer.
Then came the resentment-fueled kisses I can’t stop craving.
Late nights that turn the boardroom into a bedroom.
And somewhere along the way, the performance stops being pretend, and I fall back in love with him.
But Nathaniel doesn't believe in forgiveness.
When his sabotage surfaces, the court flags my judgment. I have sixty days to prove I'm a fit guardian for my niece.
If this falls apart, it's not just my love life on the line. It's the fate of a little girl who calls me Mom.
