A delightful billionaire romance that had me hooked from the very beginning. With tropes like ex-boyfriend's brother, fake fiancé, workplace romance, and forced proximity, it's a rollercoaster of emotions that kept me eagerly turning the pages.

Beckham Sinclair and Margo's dynamic is pure gold. Their banter and bickering added an extra layer of fun and excitement to the story, making it impossible to put down.

The premise of the story is equally intriguing. Margo, a struggling graphic designer from LA, finds herself thrust into the world of New York's elite when she agrees to be Beckham's fake fiancée and personal assistant. As they navigate their fake relationship, sparks fly, and lines between reality and pretense begin to blur.

Singleton expertly weaves together elements of romance, humor, and drama, creating a story that is both heartwarming and entertaining. And with secrets lurking around every corner in the city full of black ties and white lies, there's never a dull moment.

4.5 stars rounded up to 5.
