From bestselling author Talia Hibbert comes a story of wicked royals, fake engagements, and the fed-up office worker trapped in the midst of it all . . .



Cherry Neita is thirty, flirty, and done with men. As far as she can tell, they're overrated, overpaid, and underperforming—in every area of life. But a girl has needs, and the smoking-hot stranger she just met at the office seems like the perfect one-night stand . . .



Prince Ruben of Helgmøre is reckless, dominant, and famously filthy. The outcast royal is rebuilding his reputation—all for a good cause—but he can't resist a pretty face. And bossy whirlwind Cherry's got the face, the body, and the attitude to make Ruben's convictions crumble. Even better, when she propositions him, she has no idea who he really is.



But when paparazzi catch the pair, erm, kissing in an alleyway, Ruben's anonymity disappears faster than Cherry's knickers. Now the press is in uproar, the palace is outraged, and Ruben's reputation is back in the gutter. There's only one way to turn this disaster around—and it involves Cherry, some big fat lies, and a flashy diamond ring. On her left hand.



Unfortunately, Cherry isn't pleased with Ruben's "fake engagement" scheme . . . and neither is the king.
