Amara Castillo thought she had finally found the opportunity that would change her life. A glamorous wedding, a powerful client, and a chance to prove herself as one of the city's top wedding coordinators. There was only one problem. The groom is Trey Alvarez, the same man she secretly loved for years. The same man who once broke her heart. Amara grew up in the Alvarez mansion as the maid's daughter, watching a life of luxury she could never belong to. Trey was the heir to a powerful empire, ten years older, confident, untouchable, and far beyond her reach. When Amara confessed her feelings at fifteen, he shattered her dreams with a single sentence. "Stop believing in fairy tales." Ten years later, Amara is no longer the invisible girl from the servants' wing. She has rebuilt herself into a confident and successful woman, now one of the city's most sought after wedding coordinators. But fate has a cruel sense of humor. Because now she must plan the wedding of the man she never stopped loving. And Trey is not pleased to see her. "You're not who I expected," he tells her coldly. What Trey doesn't expect is the woman Amara has become. She no longer bows her head or hides in the shadows. The quiet girl he once dismissed now stands before him stronger, fearless, and impossible to ignore. But the closer they work together, the harder it becomes to deny the tension between them. Because planning someone else's wedding is dangerous when the groom is the only man your heart has ever loved.

She was forced into marriage to save her family. He agreed to marry her because well, he can do whatever he pleases. Anastasia Morettin thought returning home after five years meant reconciliation with her father. Instead, she walked into a nightmare-her stepsister had stolen her longtime boyfriend, and her father had arranged her marriage to a man even colder than betrayal itself. Niklaus Montgomery is ruthless, powerful, and untouchable. A billionaire feared in boardrooms and high society alike. To him, love is a weakness, and emotions are a liability. When his family forces him into an unwanted marriage, he sees Anastasia as nothing more than a pawn in a high-stakes game. Trapped in a loveless union, Anastasia suffers under her stepmother's cruelty and Niklaus's icy indifference. But as secrets unravel-including the truth behind her mother's death-she begins to fight back. And somewhere in the war between them, Niklaus finds his cold heart beginning to thaw. But danger lurks in the shadows. Betrayal comes from within. And when the past collides with the present, love may not be enough to save them. He vowed he would never love. She vowed she would never break. In the end, only one of them can win. A heart-wrenching, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance filled with passion, betrayal, and the battle between love and power.

Caden Miller. Hot, cynical, and notoriously labelled the bad boy of Crestmont High. Attention-seekers flirt with him. Idiots fight with him. The ones who know what's good for them, stay away from him. If you fight him, you know you'll lose soon. Short-tempered, mysterious, and those oh-so-hot looks. All of that was enough for a person to fall head over heels for him. If only he cared to give a shit about them. Not when he was also the youngest gang leader in New York City, with just one mission in mind: stop his equally cynical brother from ruining his life more than he already had. Skylar Anderson. Not a nerd. Or a cheerleader. All she cares about is her workaholic (and maybe even a little dysfunctional) parents, her adorable cat and her not-so adorable best friend, and her sleep. Quite literally. Living a normal and carefree life, trying her best not to flunk Physics, there wasn't anything more that she wanted. Until she receives a letter in her mailbox... ...and that normal, carefree life goes right above the clouds. . . . "Tʜᴇ ᴘʀᴏʙʟᴇᴍ ɪꜱ," ʜᴇ ꜱᴀɪᴅ ᴀꜱ ʜᴇ ʟᴇᴀɴᴇᴅ ᴄʟᴏꜱᴇʀ, "Iғ ɪ ᴋɪꜱꜱ ʏᴏᴜ, ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴛʜɪɴᴋ ɪ'ᴅ ʙᴇ ᴀʙʟᴇ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴏᴘ." #2 in Chick-lit #1 in Humor #7 in Romance #1 in Teen Fiction #3 in The Grace Awards 2019 Text copyright © Crystal7016 ™ 2018 Cover credits: @youtumblrgeek ✨

"Because I was thinking the same thing." || The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right?
