Everett James has spent twenty-five years pulling Alexandra Weston out of one disaster after another. She's chaos, he's calm, and somehow, they've always worked. When Alex's latest crisis threatens to upend her life, Everett offers the only solution that makes sense: marry him. Just on paper. No strings. But a month in Italy with the woman he's never stopped loving is a dangerous plan. Especially when the past comes calling, and "no strings" starts to feel impossible. A sharp, witty friends-to-lovers romance with a marriage of convenience, long-buried feelings, and one secret that changes everything.
