Synopsis
Lucille DeMarco thought her ‘happily ever after’ was coming true when her billionaire boyfriend asked her to join him on the island of Tucunia. When Seeley arrives after him, she learns the relationship she sacrificed everything for was a joke to him. Heartbroken, Seeley, meets an attractive pro surfer, Asher.
After getting to know each other and finding out they both have demons to face, she and the heartthrob surfer come to an intriguing arrangement to help each other out—a fake relationship.
As the two grow closer, unraveling secrets about their families, and dealing with a resort destroying the beautiful beaches, can they stick to their deal?
Or will they fall into the forbidden depths of their hearts?
***
“Are you gonna get over here, or am I going to get started by myself?”
“As hot as that would be, I’m not much for spectator sports. I’d rather pleasure you until you forget your name.”
