Strictly Business

One office. Two enemies. And a secret he cannot find out... You know that post-vacation glow? Where you're all sun-kissed and optimistic and determined to make changes in your life? Well, mine lasted for about five minutes. Until I walked into the office and saw Myles Salinger sitting in my boss's chair. One look at his scowling face was enough to make me want to fly straight back to Europe. And no, he's not getting any of the donuts I brought in for the team. He doesn't deserve them. You see, on paper he's my contemporary. But in reality he's been my workplace nemesis for the last two years. Lucky for us we're usually separated by five hundred miles. But now he's here in my face, throwing his impressive weight around and driving everybody crazy with his demands. Especially me. Good thing he doesn't know the big decision I made while I was away. That I'm going to try for a baby. Alone. If he ever finds out he'll never let me hear the end of it. So let's keep it between us. Okay?

Amara Winslow Being Nicholas Blackwood's assistant means knowing his every move before he makes it. But when he asks me to be his fake fiancée, everything changes. Suddenly, I'm wearing his ring, attending his events, and sharing his space. What starts as a simple arrangement soon spirals into something far more complicated, and the lines between professional and personal blur in ways I never expected. Falling for my boss was never part of the deal, but now I'm not sure I can stop.
