Lincoln and Stephanie had been friends for years, meeting at university and becoming best friends almost immediately. So when Linc is told his company won't be his without him being in a committed relationship, who else does he turn to but his best friend?
Steph would do almost anything for Linc. He had been with her through thick and thin. Never judged her, always supportive, and all-around great guy. So when he asks for a favour, she can do this for him, right?
Nothing would change. They were best friends. A short-term arrangement won't cost her anything.
After all, he would do it for her.
It's the right choice, really.

Venomous Empire (A dark college hockey romance)
October 30DC GOLD - Sticker Coming Soon! Rule #1 of lying low at Kingsmore University: Don't flirt with the hockey captain. Don't make eye contact. And definitely don't get into a fake relationship with him. Honestly, just avoid him entirely. Too bad Aaron Varenko doesn't do subtle. And for the record, I don't do relationships. But the moment our eyes locked that first day on campus, the plot twist started writing itself. I was hoping to be a side character, preferably one who stays out of trouble and off-page. Too late. But, when a certain psycho from my past turns up, Aaron makes me an offer I couldn't refuse: "Let him think you're mine and he won't touch you." Totally logical right?🙄 The problem? He's a little too good at pretending. And I'm a little too good at forgetting it's not real. Now the lines are blurring and the secrets I worked so hard to bury are coming back to life. And Aaron might be the only person who can save me...or completely break me.
Practice Makes Perfect (A Romantic Comedy)
AMBY AWARDS TOP PICK 2023 ❤️ "You think I can't act like I'm into you?" He asks in a whisper. He reaches out, and strokes a finger down my cheek, and I feel myself shiver at the touch. "You think I can't convince everyone that I have feelings for you?" His eyes are darker than ever, and any sign of a smile has now vanished. The only word I can think right now to describe him is "smouldering". I have searched many great romance novels (and even more sub-standard ones), and I am yet to find a better synonym for that particular word. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Watson has always played by the rules. She also constantly strives to be the best at everything she does. So when her boyfriend Declan decides to turn their temporary break into a permanent break-up, she starts to seriously doubt her girlfriend skills. Her new flatmate Ric tells Abby she's not the problem, but how can she believe *him* when he's one of the most annoying guys she's ever encountered? However, when she needs a fake boyfriend to save face in front of Declan, Ric might just be the only man she can turn to . . . Practice Makes Perfect offers you some forced proximity, enemies to lovers, a dash of fake dating, pub quizzes, flatmate frustrations . . . And - of course - an annoying ex, because doesn't everyone have at least one of those??? ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cover by @LNRoberts1 ❤️Complete

The Best Kind of Betrayal
It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.

OFFSCRIPT
Enemies on camera. Lovers off script. But what if the feelings were never fake? Lily Carson talks too much. Forgets everything. Laughs too loud. She wasn't supposed to get cast in a celebrity reality show - she tripped into it, literally. And now she's stuck sharing a room with the coldest, rudest, most infuriatingly hot celebrity she's ever met. Judah White is famous, rich, emotionally unavailable, and very good at pretending not to care. Especially when cameras are rolling. Especially when Lily's involved. They're opposites in every possible way. He calls her a menace. She calls him a vampire with a god complex. But forced proximity has a funny way of making walls crumble. One photoshoot. One confession. One kiss they weren't supposed to mean. Now the internet ships them. The world watches them. And the lines between fake dating and very real feelings are blurring too fast to fix. Because falling in love on camera is risky. But falling for your enemy off script? That's the real danger. ---Complete
