Do you love fake boyfriend romances as much as I do? Well, then maybe you need this one: a movie star asks a romance writer to be his fake girlfriend, to help him persuade movie execs he can make the switch from action movie hero to rom-com lead. She doesn't know he's a movie star, not at first, and that's just the beginning of their fun and sexy story.
I hope you'll fall in love with Sean and Livy like I did. And since I love fake boyfriend stories, there will be another one later this year. Stay tuned!
Livy
He's a famous movie star.
I didn't know that when we met in the coffee shop, chatting like long-time friends. I said he reminded me of someone in a movie I'd been dragged to last year.
Now he wants me to be his fake girlfriend.
Me. I live in the same small town I grew up in. I write steamy romance. Well, I do when the characters cooperate, which they haven't lately.
He's trying to convince movie execs he can make the switch from action films to rom-coms. All I need to do is pretend to be his girlfriend, helping him demonstrate his romantic side.
How hard can that be?
He's sexy, and charming, and funny. A real-life template for my favorite kind of romance hero.
Exactly the inspiration I need right now.
I just need to pretend I'm not falling for him. Turns out that's a lot harder than I ever expected.
Sean
She's a snarky and sexy fairy-tale princess.
I couldn't resist trying to get her attention in the coffee shop. I used a cheesy line I hadn't tried since college, saying she looked just like my buddy's sister.
Only she went along with it. Next thing I know we're trading wildly creative stories about her crazy brother—who doesn't even exist.
I think I started falling for her right then.
This fake relationship gives us all kinds of fun times together. She's teaching me about romance heroes. I'm turning her into a fan of my movies.
Everything is going great. Looks like I'll get the rom-com. But now I want something more.
I persuaded this amazing woman to be my fake girlfriend. Can I convince her to be my real one?
