They say all is fair in love and war. Clearly, they haven’t met Warner Landers. The ruthless billionaire had me begging him to spare my family’s restaurant from a buyout. In response, he shamelessly flirted and walked away wearing a smug smirk. Karma strikes, literally, when he crosses the street. Unconscious, he’s rushed to the hospital, and for some unknown reason, I’m swept in right after him as if I know this man—or worse, that I’m married to him. Am I in too much shock to deny the allegation? Yes. Am I still using his short-term amnesia to my advantage? Absolutely.

I needed his help, and in turn he needed mine. Before he agreed to take down my ex's company, he stipulated one clause—marriage. He never told me why. He never wanted payment. He just wanted me to agree. And I did. I agreed to play the part, until it was no longer playing. On both our parts. But it turns out he needed me for an ulterior motive. His secrets harboured deep inside of him, and as time went on, I was getting more tangled in his web. I knew I shouldn't stay. I couldn't keep away. And worst of all, I found out it was all for revenge. But that didn't keep me from loving Nate Spencer.

I, Dallas Colter, am kind of a massive A hole-and need help fixing that personality problem. With too much on my plate, the very last thing on my mind is a relationship-the football draft is looming, I never understood why my teammates bother with girlfriends. None of us had the time. When my sports agent suggests that being seen in public with a "respectable" girl would be good for my bad reputation, I couldn't think of a single person to help me out. The only girls I know aren't wifey material, and the ones who are? Might catch feelings. Except Ryann Winters.

I’ll be your date, and you’ll be mine. Who says a funeral can’t be romantic? Okay, everyone. Including myself. That doesn’t stop the rumor mill from turning when I show up with a beautiful redhead on my arm. That redhead also just happens to be a stranger, relatively speaking. Charlotte Barrow and I have run into each other a few times—on the subway, at a bar, and now on our way to separate funerals. Instead of the prodigal son who let his parents down showing up alone, I traded favors and brought a date. The deal made sense at the time. You be my date, and I’ll be yours.
