How does a fae lie without telling a lie? He gets his hot boss to do it for him! When Conor wants to avoid his family’s well-meaning attempts to set him up with his ex, he asks his attractive and unattainable boss, Matt, to pose as his boyfriend over the Yule season. What he doesn’t tell Matt is that despite his habitual flirting with everyone he meets, Conor wants Matt like no one else. He also neglects to mention he’s fae, and his whole family is equally magical. And they want him to come home and leave the human realm forever. Matt doesn’t know and doesn’t care where Conor came from, only that he can’t imagine his store—or his life—without Conor in it. He knows it’s playing with fire to pose as a happy couple with his beautiful and too-young assistant, but he can’t resist the chance to pretend, if only for a little while. What he doesn’t count on is how good Conor feels in his arms... or how desperately he needs it all to be real. Lines blur quickly, and assumptions are made, but human and fae hearts are equally fragile. Can they hold it together long enough to make their fake relationship as real as they both desperately want, or will Conor and Matt run from the truth of how they feel before they kind find out that it's always been real?
