“I don’t…”
Her laugh is loud and long. “Relax! I’m kidding. Ish. Listen, I know it’s hard - ”
“Sweetie, I haven’t had anything hard since Jason dumped me.” My smile is wan. Rosa’s, incredibly, widens.
“Okay, I’m proud of you on a few levels right now. An off color joke and some honesty? Very nice. So, that’s what’s really got you down, huh?”
I shrink in my chair a bit. “I dunno. I just feel stuck, I guess.”
“Well, I’ve got a cure in mind for that!” Rosa’s already on her feet. “Go home and change into something slinky, my darling. We’re going out tonight!” She proceeds to sing the chorus of Out Tonight, from RENT. It’s her favorite musical, so I don’t know why I’m even a little surprised.
“Ouuuuut to-NIIIIGHTTTTT. Bam!” The serenade ends with Rosa pointing at me, martini glass (somehow unspilled) in her other hand.
“Rosa! Off the desk!” She climbs down, and I try to figure a way out of this. “But I was planning another of my raucous wine and ice cream evenings in my sweatpants!”
“Come on. You just said you haven’t had any ‘fun’ for months! Time to change that up.”
My protests are half-hearted even to my own ears. “But Rosa. Ice cream. Sweatpants… wine!”
“All those things will still be in your apartment tomorrow night, Amelia! You know what’ll make enjoying them even sweeter? If a man is your main course!”
I’m blushing, but still. Maybe Rosa’s right. And I do have that new, black dress. It’s not quite slinky, but it’s as close as I ever get to slinky. “Okay. All right, I’m in. At least for some drinks!”
“That’s my girl!”
I don’t know it yet, but I’m about to get “in” to a lot more than just one semi-raucous night out.

I'm fake engaged to a real billionaire.
We meet at a wedding venue... where we were supposed to marry other people.
After we both get dumped, we console ourselves with a good old fashioned one night stand.
Although real life has been hell, it turns out that in the bedroom we're a match made in heaven.
We're not about to stay home and mope on what was supposed to be the best day of our lives.
So, we decide to go through with it, together.
After all, it'd be a shame to let delicious red velvet cake go to waste.
Not to mention my lacy black honeymoon lingerie.
But in planning the perfect fake wedding, I didn't expect to develop real feelings.
I have to remember this is just pretend- I can't let myself believe in happy ever afters anymore.
My hot as hell, great in the sack, filthy rich fiance is too good to be true... right?
I (Pretend) Do is a full length standalone romance featuring a dominant, billionaire alpha male and the curvy, feisty woman he falls for. It has no cheating and no cliffhangers, but a very happy ever after and plenty of steam. Bonus content is included for your continued reading enjoyment!
