Love, Game by Brynn North

Determined interior designer seeks hot basketball player to create perfect fake romance.

This is the month that could make or break my career. I’m desperate to enter the biggest design competition of our city and win the big contract that comes with it but lack a standout property to tip the scales in my favor.

Then, I need a date to a family wedding or be sentenced to pariah in front of my ex and his new girlfriend, who happens to be one of my biggest design competitors in the city.
I think I just found the solution in gorgeous basketball superstar Rome Marius, who is in trouble with his coach and is in need of a little image rehab, just like his totally empty penthouse. I’ll be his adoring sweet girlfriend to show his coach and team he’s a grownup, and he’ll let me redecorate the monstrosity he calls home and enter it in the contest. So what if I don’t know a thing about sports? Faking it can’t be that hard, right?

I am absolutely able to ignore that he’s hot, single, and incredibly sweet…I’m a professional…?
