Runaway heiress Rayne Fairfax-Daniels never expected her quiet new life in California to come with so much trouble. But when her lingerie selfie gets accidentally texted to her co-worker and best friend’s brother, she can’t resist turning one mistake into a dangerously risqué game.
Aircraft engineer Harley Risk-Taker Swank prefers his life simple—until prim and proper Rayne turns out to be the mystery woman sending him lingerie-clad selfies. His little sister’s best friend has been icing him out for months, but now he can’t get her out of his head.
When her autocratic mother arrives, demanding her return to London and the arranged marriage she ran away to avoid, Harley steps in and introduces himself as Rayne’s husband. Now caught in a fake marriage filled with meddling family, nosy coworkers, and sizzling chemistry, can one scandalous mistake really lead to something real?
