From Best Friend To Fiancé

“You fake-engaged me to your entire family—to outdo your sister who’s marrying your ex—and now we’re actually driving to New Hope to pull off this epic lie?”
I nodded.
“Okay, okay, counteroffer—I give you my next paycheck. Just the one. And maybe my soul.”
Roman snorted. “Love, your paycheck wouldn’t cover my shoelaces.”
“Please, Roman…”
He watched me, eyes softer now. “When do we leave?”
“In two weeks.”
He ran a hand through his messy hair. “Great. Let’s ruin a wedding.”

I’m Savannah Hart, and I panicked. When my sister said she’d marry my ex, I blurted a lie: I’m engaged to Roman Blackwood—my razor-smart, infuriating best friend. We head to New Hope to “ruin a wedding” as revenge, and our fake-engagement romance explodes into open war—petty games, a velvet-room “surprise,” and danger that feels way too real.
With Roman Blackwood, banter is armor—and gasoline. In this best-friends-to-lovers freefall, forced proximity and messy family drama shove us past the point of no return. One storm-soaked night brands desire onto friendship. Now I either hide behind the lie—or risk scandal and heartbreak for the truth. A high-heat, angsty contemporary romance—told by me.
Perfect for readers who love fake-engagement romance, fake-dating, best-friends-to-lovers, forced proximity, messy family drama, and high-heat, high-angst contemporary revenge romance.
