About this book

When a notorious rock drummer needs to rehabilitate his bad-boy reputation, he decides a good girl on his arm is exactly what he needs—and he's willing to pay for the privilege. Anne never imagined she'd actually meet the shirtless drummer who once decorated her teenage bedroom walls, let alone become his fake girlfriend, but her mounting debts make the offer too tempting to refuse. What should be a simple, temporary arrangement quickly becomes anything but simple when the chemistry between them proves disturbingly real. This is a delicious fake-dating romance that'll have you rooting for two people to stop fighting what's clearly meant to be.

Intense chemistry meets forbidden temptation—dark, sensual indie rock and moody pop with raw vocal intensity. Think brooding atmospheres, sultry R&B edges, and that electric tension between reckless desire and dangerous attraction. Explicit passion wrapped in atmospheric tension.
