Royal Fake Fiancé by Vivian Wood

There are three things to know about me. One, that I am the lifelong female best friend of Lars Love, one of the crown princes of Denmark. For a decade, I’ve been known as Lars’s better half, the one that seemingly doesn’t notice his swaggering good looks and womanizing ways.

Two, that I am definitely, breathlessly, ridiculously, head over heels in love with my best friend. I have been ever since we’ve met, but it always seemed that actually dating him was out of the question for a girl from the wrong side of the tracks.

And three, that I’m not really Pippa Welch… and I’m afraid that I’m going to be found out.

When Lars begs me to pretend to be his fiancee for a few months, I hastily agree without thinking it through. After all, he is going to play act everything I’ve ever dreamed of. He’ll hold me tight and kiss me deeply and whisper dirty things in my ear at fancy parties.

It’s a dream come true… until we are in private. Because I can’t allow myself to fall for him. I put boundaries and rules in place to save me. But as he kisses me deeply on the lips, as he slides his arm around my waist, as he looks at me with those eyes that speak of whispered passions… I’m taunted by the only thing in life I’ve ever truly wanted but cannot have.

And that’s just the very beginning of my story…
