Adult Romance

Help Wanted: Romance author will pay $20k for 60 days of fake dating a stranger. PS - You have to live together (and there's only one bed)
AUDREY

I'm shocked-and more than a little starstruck-when I show up for my job interview to discover Victoria-freaking-Trulette is the prospective employer. Then I hear her offer-twenty thousand dollars if I fake date a stranger, as "research" for her next novel? I barely have any experience being a real girlfriend! There's also the not-so-little detail of us having to live together in a one-bedroom condo.

But you know what they say about desperate times... and I'm out of options. It's either this, or moving back home with my overbearing mother.

Now, I just have to survive the next sixty days without making a complete fool of myself...or falling for my fake boyfriend. Hot, intimidating, and completely out of my league, Walker is the kind of guy I usually avoid out of sheer self-preservation. Keeping things fake isn't too difficult when he's being a jerk-it's the glimpses of his softer side that are dangerous to my Feel Nothing for Walker plan.

(Don't even get me started on his drool-worthy abs, or tendency to walk around shirtless!)

WALKER

Twenty grand, to be some girl's fake boyfriend for two months?

This author lady might be certifiable, but if playing along with her little experiment is what it will take to finally quit working for my dad and start my own business, I guess I can chill in the weird lane for a couple of months.

As far as "falling in love?" If that's Victoria's hope, she's in store for a disappointment. Good thing I'm no stranger to disappointing people-just ask my dad.

Then there's Audrey, who is the most awkward girl I've ever met. Definitely not my type... no matter how cute she looks in her glasses, or how much I like her crazy hair.

(I mean, she's a vegetarian. How am I supposed to pretend I love a woman who doesn't eat bacon?)

Go Fake Yourself is a standalone slow burn romantic comedy with a guaranteed HEA. Recommended for ages 17+. for explicit language and eventual open door scenes.
