Mine to Fake Date

He is the biggest threat to her life and the only person who can save her, yet she has hated Jackson since the day they first met.

He cannot stand her either, so it stuns her when he corners her and forces them into a fake dating deal.

Refusal should be simple, except he already knows her biggest secret, and the arrangement he calls temporary is already feeding an obsession she can see in his eyes.

She still wants to punish him for trapping her, even as loathing and want begin to blur.

The danger is how deep this goes; the greater fear is that it might end, because the lies have already made escape feel like a loss.
