Pretending to date my handsome new housemate was already a bad idea, but then I discover he's no ordinary guy-he's a mobster in hiding. And in this story, he's not the hero, but the wicked villain.
Rowan Miller isn't used to hearing the word "no."
I guess when you're 6'5, gorgeously tattooed, and sculpted like a Michelangelo masterpiece, women tend to throw themselves at you.
But in a small town like Darkwater Hollow, a reputation as a womanizer will catch up with you-and your business-eventually.
Which is why Rowan needs a fake girlfriend to prove he's reformed.
Enter, me.
When my house goes up in flames, I agree to Rowan's offer in exchange for a place to stay.
After my last brutal break up, I've sworn off charming, smooth-talking men.
But the way Rowan looks at me-hungry and possessive-makes my pulse race and my skin sizzle with heat.
The longer we pretend to be in love, the more real it feels.
Just when I think I've broken my unlucky streak, I discover Rowan's hiding secrets. Big ones, like his real name.
Will his dark past bring us closer together? Or will it destroy everything we've built?
