Some rules are meant to be broken...

After my last breakup, all I wanted was a milkshake and a quiet place to fall apart. What I got was a run-in—literally—with a gorgeous stranger who ended up wearing my dessert. I figured that was the end of it. Until he walked into my workplace.

Cole is charming, confident... and my boss's son. And when a coworker mocks me at a company event, he steps in and calls me his girlfriend—without asking. The worst part? It works.

Now we're stuck keeping up the lie, just to save face. We set one rule: no falling in love.

Simple enough... until he starts making it impossible to follow. No matter how tightly I guard my heart, he keeps finding his way in.

Then I finally land the promotion I've worked so hard for... and find out Cole might've had a hand in it. I didn't want help. I wanted to earn it on my own.

Now I'm left to decide what matters more—how I got here, or who I found along the way?
