Next In Line Jeffrey Archer

For years, Ciara had hidden her feelings from her college friend, Austin, until she finally mustered the courage to confess. But just as she was ready to lay her heart on the line, he blindsided her with a gut-wrenching surprise: he had been secretly dating her childhood best friend, Yuri, and they were now engaged. Despite the sense of betrayal, Ciara feigned happiness and congratulated them, even fabricating a story about having found a boyfriend herself, instead of confessing. However, that only led to another problem when he asked her to bring her boyfriend to their wedding. Now trapped by her own lie, Ciara had to find a boyfriend in just three months. But before that, she escaped on a quick vacation to Paris, where a chance encounter led to a passionate one-night stand with a stranger she had already met twice. When she woke up the next morning and realized what she’d done, panic set in. She ran away. She thought she could leave the whole thing behind, but when she returned to the country a week later, fate twisted the knife—the stranger from Paris was now her new boss. Just when she thought her life couldn’t get any more complicated, he offered to play the role of her fake boyfriend for the wedding. This unexpected arrangement sent her tangled emotions into an unpredictable whirlwind of romance and drama, especially when she discovered a series of shocking secrets, and one of them was that her boss and pretend boyfriend was, in fact, the older brother of Austin.
