Fake Dating the Runaway Billionaire: A Forbidden Grumpy Romance

About this book

Sebastian Ashford is a billionaire on the run, a man whose grumpy demeanor is matched only by his penchant for scandal. When he flees his empire, the world mistakenly believes he has kidnapped America’s sweetheart actress. The woman in question, however, is simply trying to secure his signature on a charity pledge. What starts as a desperate chase through a parking garage quickly spirals into a viral nightmare when the two are caught on camera together, leaving the internet convinced she is his unwilling hostage. To save her imploding career and rehabilitate his image, the unlikely pair agrees to a high-stakes fake dating arrangement. They set strict boundaries: no touching, no feelings, and absolutely no falling in love. But as they hit the road, the forced proximity proves impossible to resist. Sebastian begins to reveal the man beneath the cold exterior, and the lines between performance and reality blur. Just as they surrender to the chemistry, a calculated betrayal threatens to destroy everything. With her reputation, her movie, and her heart on the line, she must decide if the man who was meant to ruin her is actually the only one worth fighting for.
