The Art of Pretending (Anna Shumate & Sabrina Quesada)
Anna Shumate is broke, unemployed, and completely winging adulthood from a New York City townhouse she shares with her friends. When everyone bails on her for the night, she does what any desperate extrovert would do: crash an exclusive art gala for the free wine using an old membership card left behind by a former roommate. She's almost caught and denied entry... until a cold, striking stranger slides in beside her and pretends to be her plus-one. Enter Sabrina Quesada: a fiercely driven artist with a sharp tongue and no patience for roadblocks, including Anna. But the universe (and the internet) has other plans. After their pretend couple act goes unexpectedly viral, Anna and Sabrina are stuck keeping up appearances for connections, clout, and increasingly complicated feelings. What starts as a one-night con spirals into a slow-burn romance neither of them saw coming. After all, the art of pretending is easy... until it starts to feel real.

Proof by Contradiction
Five years ago, Sabrina walked away. She and Anna had been partners at the academy, working side by side on projects that felt like they could change everything. But trust broke, and Sabrina left without saying goodbye. Now she's back, this time as a professor. The academy gave her what she wanted most: a lab, students, and the chance to build again. She didn't come back for the past-she came back for the work. But Anna never left. She stayed, kept working, and made her place at the academy. Seeing her again makes it clear that nothing will be easy. The hurt is still there, and so is the pull between them. A story about broken trust, stubborn pride, and two people who keep finding their way back to each other, whether they want to or not.![𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐑𝐎𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 [𝐆𝐗𝐆]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/401817909-256-k961219.jpg)

Sabrina has built her company on precision and control; Anna can barely keep her plants alive. They're complete opposites, but in the city that never sleeps, even the wrong match can turn into something right.
