There are few things my workaholic god of a boss Roman Cutler enjoys more than making my life miserable, and one is just out of his reach, thanks to his dear, sweet mom—firing me. What’s worse than losing the files to your boss’s pet project? Finding out your ex-best friend is marrying your ex-boyfriend. Single and unemployed is not how I’d expected to spend the holidays, so I stick around the office in a sea of tissues and self regret. But when an unlikely turn of events leads to my boss’s interest in securing an insta-fiancé, it turns out he still has a use for me. That’s right—my tall, muscular, obnoxiously sexy boss asked me to marry him.

I offer an endless stream of apologies, but it turns out my carelessness plays straight into Roman’s plan. But as calculating as he is, neither of us could have foreseen the consequences of our coupling—what happens when fake feelings turn real?
