When Cara Berano gets a job as a private nurse to an eccentric billionaire, the ridiculous amount of money she's offered seems too good to be true. And it is. Because not only does she have to keep her patient alive, she needs to keep his medical condition a secret to prevent his company from descending into chaos. And that means she must appear to be someone she's not.

Marcus Ryan has never been interested in his family's money. But when the family patriarch demands his grandchildren visit him for a week at his private island or lose their inheritance, Marcus is bound by familial loyalty to be there. He doesn't expect to meet the woman who once broke his heart... and find out she's now engaged to his grandfather.

Pretending to be a heartless gold digger should have been an easy job for Cara. Until she's confronted with the man she was once in love with. But if she's over her past romance with Marcus, why does each lie she tells feel like betrayal?
