Desmond Blackwood is the family member no one ever speaks of—until he's named heir to the Blackwood fortune. He cares little for the status and even less for the money, but when his brother tries to claim it for himself, Desmond refuses to step aside. The only problem? He needs to prove he's capable of commitment. And what better way than to be engaged? Luckily, he knows the perfect person to play the part. Josie isn't interested. Getting involved in her boss, Desmond's personal life sounds way too messy, especially with his daughter in the picture. But when she finds out Desmond's brother is the man who ghosted her, she realizes there's only one sure way to leave the past behind—pretend to be her boss' fiancée. But playing make-believe can easily blur the lines—and when the feelings they've buried for so long refuse to stay hidden, it's not just their hearts on the line.
