He meant to text his assistant. The message landed with the ex he left without a goodbye.
Now the heir to a billion-dollar empire needs a six-month fiancée—and she's naming her price.

Graham Caldwell doesn't do feelings; he does mergers. To close the deal that will cement his legacy, he needs a spotless narrative and a ring on someone's finger. Harper Quinn, broke-but-brilliant writer and the woman he once ghosted, agrees—on her terms: her own space, ironclad NDAs, and absolute control of the story. What starts as a contract becomes a collision of old heat and unfinished hurt as penthouse proximity, paparazzi flashbulbs, and family power games blur the line between performance and truth.

When a leak brands their engagement a fraud and the internet turns vicious, Harper refuses to be handled—and Graham has to decide if love is his greatest liability or the only strategy that ever mattered. Sharp banter, public-relations minefields, and slow-burn surrender ignite a second-chance, fake-engagement romance about rewriting the text that started it all—and choosing each other when the world is watching.
