Synopsis: they thought they could fool everyone with a fake courtship, but they may be fooling only themselves... Alexandra Atkinson prides herself on being in control. It&’s why she&’s such an asset to her father&’s investment firm—along with her utter lack of a social life and her talent for spotting successful ventures for investors. But with her father nearing retirement and the board unwilling to have a female head, Alex could lose everything . . . After his business partner burned him, Lucien Taylor is determined to start over. But he doesn&’t know how until his childhood friend&’s sister, Alexandra Atkinson, comes to him with a most unusual proposal: She&’ll help Lucien find the funding he needs if he pretends to court her long enough to secure her claim to her father&’s company. But Alex and Lucien soon realize they didn&’t quite account for all the details in their arrangement—like how they can undo each other with just a look. And the more time they spend together, the more the intensity shimmering between them can&’t be controlled. Not even by Alex. And if they give in? Well, she&’s not sure which of them will be in more trouble . . . but she&’s willing to find out.
