Second Chance with the Grump

A Sweet, Small-town Romance

James Mercer. My highschool sweetheart. Now my billionaire boss, and fake boyfriend.

When we were kids in a small town, I thought our relationship would last forever.
But one day I woke up and he was gone- without a goodbye.

Years later, his grandma offers me a job,
My dire circumstances make it hard to resist.
Even when that job is to be James’s temporary assistant and fake date.

Plan a glittering gala? No problem.
Hold hands with my grumpy, infuriatingly handsome ex? A little harder.
Keep my real feelings out of it? Impossible.

We have an agreement.
But memories and new feelings surface.

And I find myself drawn to him.

Teasing turns to flirting, and pretend is blending into reality.
He’s become the man of my dreams.

But when this is over he’ll disappear from my life…again.

I have to deal with his angry ex.
Pretend to be his perfect match.
And now I might lose my heart, my pride, and the man I love.
