Ryan Clarke needs to shed his reputation as an irresponsible playboy if he wants to be appointed the CEO of his family's multi-billion dollar empire. He needs a serious girlfriend as part of his image rehabilitation. The only problem- he does not have any prospects. Except one. 

A chance encounter reunites Ryan with his high school best friend, Sara Morgan. Although she and Ryan shared a connection in the past, Sara feared she would never fit into his glamorous world. Growing up in a working-class home, Sara attended Ryan's private school on a merit scholarship. A decade later, Sara is a social worker for the same program that aided her as a teen. She cares about helping people- not wealth or privilege. When Ryan offers Sara a donation to her at-risk youth program in exchange for posing as his girlfriend, she accepts the deal despite her reluctance to get too close to Ryan again. 

They must work together to maintain their charade, all the while fighting their growing feelings for each other. Will their pretend relationship prove they are too different to be together? Or is it the second chance at love they needed all along?

60 parts Complete
"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.
