Agree to play fake fiance for a work retreat? Sure. With your new boss who also happens to be your ex from high school? Why not. I took a wrong turn on my first day of work into the men’s locker room and BAM. There he is. Jenson Sharpe may be half-naked, damp, and delicious, but that doesn’t give him the right to be rude. Even if he is the CEO of the company I just started working for. The instant, familiar chemistry is there. He asks me to fake an engagement to impress the owner of the company. And he’s going to pay me to do it. I ignore everything in me screaming NO, and end up screaming YES on a company retreat. As the pretend kisses become all too real, our old flame flickers back to life. Now I'm caught between the past and the present. Fake and real.. This was meant to be just an act. A stepping stone. I tell myself he’s changed into a cold, hard CEO focused on profits. That will make it easy to walk away when this is over. Right?

Mel goes to find a job to pay off bills that she accumulated while taking care of her ailing aunt. When she goes in on the first day, her boss is someone that she knows well: childhood friend Jensen. He's trying to make a name for himself right now and has plans to take over when his boss retires, but he also knows he needs to look like a family man in order for his boss to accept him. Mel broke Jensen's heart years ago, so she owes him the favor of pretending to be his fiancé. Of course, soon things aren't fake anymore.
