Lily took a deep breath. She wasn’t going to pass out from her now-galloping heart. She was thirty-three years old and way beyond having issues seeing an ex. Even the ex. She was going to just ignore Matt and enjoy her best friend’s wedding. Lily is fine. Really, truly, she’s ok.

Dark, dangerous mafia soldiers like Marco Russo were made men, but luckily for me, they weren’t made for marriage. Which made my job of seducing him so much easier. Enticing him to share sensitive information took far more finesse. But during all those steamy nights we shared, I learned enough to take down his family. I also made the stupid mistake of falling for the enemy, and now I was going to have to make a choice. My head or my heart. My job or my love. My end or my beginning. Because once Marco realized who I was and how I’d deceived him, he’d have a choice to make too.

The rogue who I am going to marry, for this may be the only chance I have to find happiness. So what if it means binding myself to a man who hates me? Except "until death do us part" is going to come quicker than anyone knows....

At 30 years old, Erika Leib's personal hardships have stalled her into a mundane life of safety and security. Not that she spends much time thinking about it like that.

Plus, she's got Rachel—her best friend, confidante, the person who's always been there for her and always will be. It's not where she thought she'd be, but she's content. That changes after her chance meeting with actor Xavier James.

Mesmerized by her beauty, I watched as she swayed to the music. Incomparable and exotic, her call to every cell in my body was louder than the 120 decibels of our last concert.

Let me just say this—fake dating the cocky movie star was not my idea. Especially since he’s my former roomie and, gulp, my secret ex.
