'Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you,
But ain't nobody love you like I do.

Cause baby you look happier, you do.
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too. 
And until then I'll smile to hide the truth.
But I know I was happier with you.

Baby you look happier, you do.
But if he breaks your heart like lovers do,
Just know I'll be waiting here,
for you."

Henley agrees to pretend to date millionaire Bennett Calloway for a fee, falling in love as she wonders - how is he involved in her brother's false conviction? ****** Henley Linden's brother is in jail for a crime he didn't commit, and she'll take any job to raise the money needed to free him. Soon, she's agreed to pretend to date millionaire Bennett Calloway for ten thousand dollars, so his mother will ease up the pressure on him to find a wife. But once Henley is enmeshed in Bennett's world, he falls for her, and she starts to have feelings for him as well. Despite her romance with Bennett, as she grows closer to the Calloways, Henley realizes they are somehow involved in her brother's conviction. Journeying deeper into a world of wealth and conspiracies, Henley is forced to rely on Bennett, though doing so could cost her everything. [[word count: 200,000-250,000 words]]
