In the lavish world of 1970s high society, Madeline, once a poor relation, captivates the attention of a politician's son. Their story takes a sharp turn when Madeleine, now pregnant and alone, concocts a husband, Bill Shakespeare, to shield herself from societal judgement.

Unexpectedly, a real Bill Shakespeare,  stumbles into the charade, embracing the role with enthusiasm. But why? Why is this other Bill Shakespeare so keen to pay along. As the two navigate a dance of mistaken identities, bell-bottoms, and disco beats, they discover that love, laughter, and a touch of Shakespearean drama might just rewrite the rules of family and happiness in a judgemental society that never quite understood them. Will their faux union withstand scrutiny, or crumble like a poorly constructed stage set?

When Ph.D. candidate Scarlett is forced to play loving wife to her mentor's playboy son, the last thing she expects is to fall for the fantasy herself. ***** Scarlett Rong has dedicated her life to anthropology, and she wouldn't have it any other way, even if her overbearing Ph.D. mentor makes a social life impossible. Dr. Alexeev has the power to make or break Scarlett's career and there's no way she's risking that. Even if it means getting roped into a holiday scheme that can't possibly be university policy. When Maxwell, the rebellious son of Dr. Alexeev's ex-husband gets into a car accident that leaves him with amnesia, Alexeev is far from heartbroken - in fact, she sees it as the perfect opportunity to find out why he's planning on signing his billion-dollar company away to his best friend for pennies. Before she knows it, Scarlett finds herself playing doting wife to the infamous playboy to find out the truth. But as the lies become more entangled, Scarlett finds herself questioning her involvement in this scheme, and more importantly, what her true feelings are for the handsome billionaire. A fake marriage was hardly on Scarlett's wish list this year, but maybe Maxwell is more of a gift than she initially suspected... [[Word count: 50,000 - 60,000]] Cover designed by Regina Dionela

The man decides to have a little affair of his own just before their union. She was clueless of how long he had been at it- but one thing was crystal clear- she was evacuating. Far away from her now ex-husband-to-be. Of course she wasn't alone- within her was possibly a new life and beginning with the bastard left at fault. Will he come searching for her? What happens when years pass and still no sign of her? Five years is a long time but not enough to heal, people change and new paths lie ahead of them. What if they weren't meant to be standing at the alter in the end? Maybe this story was not supposed to have a happy-ending. Started: 06.11.2014 Ended: 18.02.2019
