Sweet Deal

After her last job ended with a broken heart and a humiliating exit from the company, Shelby Leighton's project management career is back on track with a new job and a high-profile project. The problem: her new boss is a little too friendly, and the staff is talking. Can you say, "deja vu?" The solution: casually mention a fictional new boyfriend. New problem: she's expected to bring her new man to the upcoming corporate picnic. Jake Magill doesn't do relationships. It's casual or nothing, but the hot blonde he's been eyeing at the coffee shop sure is something. Especially when she confesses her problem, and he finds himself offering to act as her date. Sounds simple. Stroll around the party with Shelby's sexy curves clinging to his arm? He's all over it. Until he meets her boss-the man who once stole and married the one woman Jake thought he loved. Now Jake's the one with a reason to pretend. If only to save his own pride...and Shelby from the predatory gaze of the man who could ruin her, and any chance of finding out if their fake connection is the real thing.
