An Enemies to Lovers Fake Relationship Romance

By: Nicole Regan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

I was the awkward intern.
He was my grumpy, tattooed CEO.
Now we’re fake-dating, cohabiting, and maybe—accidentally—in love?

It started with a spreadsheet.
One wrong click, and I uncovered a corporate scandal
big enough to get me fired… or worse.

Enter Roman Whitaker.
CEO. Infamous grump. Tattooed boardroom god.
Also, now—apparently—my fake boyfriend.

His plan?
Move into his penthouse. Pretend we’re madly in love.
Stay alive and out of the tabloids.

No one warned me his dog would like me.
Or that he’d make my tea perfectly.
Or that he’d walk around shirtless like it’s not emotional terrorism.

He’s bossy. Broody. Completely off-limits.
And somehow, the only place I feel safe.

We fall slowly. Then all at once.
A kiss in the dark. A night in his bed.
And the terrifying realization—I don’t want fake anymore.

But the people trying to ruin us?
They’re not finished.

And if I lose him now—
It won’t just break my heart.

It’ll blow up everything we’ve risked to protect.
