Second Chance Ex

A Grumpy Boss Fake Engagement Romance

By: Morgen Raine

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

I fake an engagement with my grumpy billionaire boss… who also happens to be my ex.

Marcus Hale was supposed to stay in my past. But on day one of my dream job, I spill coffee all over myself — and look up to find him standing there. My new boss. My biggest mistake. Five years older and somehow more infuriating than ever.

Worse? We get stuck in a private elevator. Alone. Neither of us moves toward the door.

When a PR scandal erupts, I'm the one who suggests the fix — a fake engagement. His ring. My problem.

Now we're sharing a suite. Smiling for cameras. Pretending to be in love. Except every time he touches me, I forget I'm supposed to be pretending.

He's infuriating. Guarded. And somehow the only person who's ever made me feel safe. He makes me tea when I'm anxious. Defends me against his father. Looks at me like I'm the only thing that's ever made sense.

I swore I'd never fall for him again.

I was already too late.

But when the man I helped put in prison tracks me to Manhattan — demanding I recant my testimony or watch him burn everything I've built — one secret could destroy Marcus's empire, end my career, and cost me the only man I've ever loved twice.
