Faking it never felt so real.

IVY
It’s over. Eight years of meetings, ‘document emergencies’ (whatever they are), and covering up my tattoos, and now a company-wide redundancy has finally pulled my name out of a hat. Exit: stage left.
So much for making the responsible choice. Giving up theatre to work a lifetime locked to a keyboard was supposed to show I was a grown up, except all it’s ever been is a role I forced myself into, and I’ve been playing it for so long I’m not sure who the real Ivy Hawkins is anymore.
There’s no other answer when Lincoln Reeves offers me the chance to be anyone I want for a night. Saying no to those piercing grey eyes would be impossible… And then I immediately ruin it by sticking my foot in my mouth. Now I’m playing the part of his fake girlfriend, while desperately trying not to fall for my own act.

LINCOLN
One night. It’s not nearly enough, could never be enough where Ivy is concerned, but she’s itching for an adventure, so that’s what I’ll give her.
Playing her boyfriend isn’t a hardship, but it’s one more lie separating me and my family, and the closer Ivy and I get, the more it threatens to unravel everything I returned from London to fix.
