About this book
When a desperate lie about bringing a date to his parents' anniversary party lands Henry Dawson in hot water, he turns to an exclusive companion service—only to discover that the witty, capable woman hired to be his fake girlfriend is Emma Burns, the brilliant (and infuriatingly attractive) lawyer he's sparred with for years at work. What neither of them realizes is that they've already been communicating under aliases, completely captivated by each other's minds before ever knowing who they're talking to. As their fake dating arrangement unfolds through a delicious mix of witty banter, steamy encounters, and late-night text exchanges, the line between pretend and real gets dangerously blurry, forcing these two legal powerhouses to confront feelings they never saw coming.
