FAKING IT WITH MY SWORN ENEMY

Fall head over heels for my brother’s best friend? Been there, done that, got the heartbreak.

Play pretend with a man who once shattered my world? Better be worth it.

A decade wandering the globe, penning tales, and now I'm back in New York City.

Settling in with my big brother, ready to write a spicy column...

Enter Theo Avery, freshly-divorced and freshly annoying.

He needs a date for his cousin's wedding—a fake one.

My brother, in his infinite wisdom, volunteers me as tribute.

We despise each other. Thanks to a past love affair gone horribly wrong.

He betrayed me with a girlfriend I never saw coming.

Now we're neighbors in this concrete jungle, faking something more than smiles.

Everybody else buys it.

Why wouldn’t they? Our chemistry's Oscar-worthy.

Just as things get real, Theo disappears.

That's it. I hate him again.

Then I discover a secret of my own—a surprise that will change everything.

She’s going to enjoy torturing me. I just know it. She’ll wear something sexy on purpose, sit right across from me, and then act like I don’t exist. And I’ll have to sit there and pretend she doesn’t exist and like I’m not sitting there imagining banging her. 

"I have never read anything by Ashley Ellis before, OMG this was fantastic. Ella returns to the United States after years of traveling the world.

Ella and Theo dated briefly years ago, but Sebastian never knew. Theo needs a date to his sisters wedding; because his ex-wife will be there. Can Ella and Theo fake date to the wedding? Love the plot, great setting and strong intense interesting characters."
