Contemporary Web Novels & Brave Love-Triangle Stories

One heartbreak. One reckless night. One billionaire who refuses to let her go. Kaia Sinclair thought she was just erasing ten years of unrequited love when she went home with a dangerously handsome stranger. She didn't expect him to be Roman Carrington, the billionaire playboy every woman in Los Angeles is chasing, and the one man her toxic, spotlight hungry so called best friend has been hunting for months. She didn't expect him to hire a private investigator to track her down. And she definitely didn't expect him to make her an offer she couldn't refuse. Six months as his fake fiancée. He gets the respectable woman his family demands. She gets a chance to prove to the Ashfords and to herself that she's not the girl who waits on the sidelines. The contract is fake. The engagement is fake. But as the fake smiles turn into dark lingering looks, Kaia begins to wonder which part of the deal will break first. Her heart, or the contract.
