I have way too many things to do in order to get the life I want, so having a live-in hookup seems to be the perfect solution to let off some steam.GeorgeI’ve known I’m not straight for almost a year now.

And I… I don’t know where I’ll be, all I know is I’ll be playing for an NFL team.

And still… five white dinosaurs who shouldn’t even be on my board of directors think they can control me, they think they can pull my strings as if I’m their puppet. They’re in for a rude awakening. Instead of letting my impulses rule me, I follow my son’s suggestion, and exposing them as the bigots they are will be a lot more satisfying. If I happen to get a hot hookup with a drop dead gorgeous man out of this mess, well that’s no one's business but ours. Tristan I’m very good at my job.

Because no one is more successful than the unofficial King of Manhattan—he owns most of it after all. I wasn’t prepared for NYC’s most eligible bachelor to ask us to find him a fake boyfriend. What I never could’ve imagined, though, was for my sister—in a sick twist of the Hunger Games—to volunteer me as tribute.

Luke Riggs might be as handsome as I remember, he might still be the star football player with as many trophies as my friends, but when he tracks me down to apologize for not remembering me, I realize that there’s so much more to learn about the guy that leaves me speechless just from the sight of him. I gave up on romantic love years ago though, and that’s not an easy habit to break. In my experience, being asexual means being a romance repeller. Could Luke be the one to make me feel safe again? Luke The last thing I expect to find when I arrive at my boss’ house, is to be met with the sight of an angel gazing down at me. To say Bennett meets me at a disadvantage is the understatement of the century. The man’s impressive in all the ways that count, and even though right now—when half of our fans are begging Gab to fire me, and the other half are begging me to do better—is possibly the worst time ever to date him, that’s what I want. It’s also something I won’t let myself have, not until I’ve gotten my football shit together. But then fate, the universe, God, whatever you want to call it, intervenes, and suddenly, I need Bennett and Lizzie in my life, and once I’m in with them, I’m all in, and there’s nothing I won’t do to become part of their family and to protect them.
