Egocentric (Contradiction Collision #1)

Time is money.
But money definitely can't buy me any more time.

The night that I met Drew Rush, Manhattan's top divorce attorney, was the same night that I got engaged - to him.

When my father suffers his seventh stroke in three days the doctors break the devastating news that he couldn't continue to live long enough to see the end of the month. Death comes sooner rather than later for my father Kirk Davenport.

Instead of taking time to grieve his death, I'm being consoled by an ugly, oversized diamond ring on my finger and a rushed, over-the-top wedding planned by my father's own will.

Drew Rush, my stand-in fake fiancé is an egocentric asshole. He told me how it was, how it had to be and how it will be as husband and wife. Although GQ hadn't named him sexiest man of the year, the girls of Manhattan easily could've.

I hadn't seen his face plastered on numerous billboard's across New York like everyone had claimed. I didn't know much about Drew Rush, but his promise to put the happiness back in your life was his ode to his success. Upon my not-so-pleasant first encounter with Drew Rush I decided I was anything but getting my happily ever that was promised.

Secrets, lies and betrayals weren't in Drew Rush's contract. None of it was. He was a f*cking divorce lawyer, not a family shrink. He didn't do casual hook-ups, or one month commitments to marriage. Drew Rush wasn't built for love, he was built for an empire filled with power.

How was I supposed to pretend to be in love with someone who's my soon-to-be husband?

Well, I learned that you can't pretend.
