Napoleon complex.
Short-man syndrome.
Again and again, that’s how the media characterizes me.
That’s not the worst part though. The worst part is this regular lampooning is costing my company. Stocks are down. Bringing them back up again is a tall order.
An order that just might be right for my long-legged personal assistant, Ruby.

Gawky. Awkward. Amazonian.
I’ve heard it all.
That’s why I’m surprised when my domineering billionaire boss, Liam King, tells me I’m the perfect woman to pretend to be his girlfriend to soften his image to the media.
I know I should say no. But life is short and when else am I going to get the opportunity to live the high-life? That fat bonus he promises me if I pull this off only sweetens the deal.
It’s supposed to be pretend. But I might need to cut this experiment short when I start developing feelings.

The Bottom Line . . .

Liam King is not tall and gangly. But when his height and the media’s portrayal of him start to affect his company and stocks are down, it’s time to take action. He wants his personal assistant, Ruby, to be his pretend girlfriend.

Ruby is very tall, so it’s difficult to imagine how this will work. She had hoped to be fired by now, not pulled into this wealthy world and promised a bonus if it works. Being together day after day is starting to make them aware of each other in a way that has nothing to do with “fake”! He’s so not her type… right? Or is there a possible HEA ahead?

This was a cute story with lots of sizzling chemistry. Will things work out for them? Grab your copy and see what’s in their future.
