Jazy is freaking out. But waking up one day to the realization she2527s fallen in love for the first time in her life with a man-whore, who also happens to be her best guy friend, would be enough to freak any girl out. Even worse, Jazy has to face the difficult fact her love is totally one-sided because the wealthy, incredibly scrumptious Max Byrd is just not into her that way. To Max, she2527s his best, and only, platonic girl friend.
But Max has problems, too. He suspects another woman is trying to trap him into marriage for his money by claiming she2527s having his baby. Max begs Jazy to help him out by quickly marrying him first. After entering a secret marriage of convenience with Max, the outspoken, straight-shooting Jazy is caught up in a whirlwind of lies posing as Max’s loving wife, while inside she2527s dying from the frustrated, sizzling desire for her pretend husband, denied by their no sex agreement.
About to go insane, Jazy takes control. After all, she is a horse-whispering, Celtic Cursing, potion-mixing, sex-loving Axelrod woman! There2527s nothing an Axelrod woman can’t accomplish if she sets her mind to the task, and Jazy wants Max. Armed with determination and her unique talents, can Jazy seduce the cynical playboy in just a few short weeks to believe in her and happily-ever-after? Or does Jazy learn real love needs no convincing?
A Pretend
Marriage…
Marriage…
Gaze intent on my face, Max
quirked a brow in weary amusement. “Look, I know what I2527m asking you to do is
underhanded and somewhat nuts, but doesn2527t my continued mental health count for
something?”

I laughed shortly, shaking
my head. “So, let me be sure I2527ve got this right. Instead of you being
shanghaied by your mother into a marriage you don2527t want, you want to shanghai
me into marriage I don2527t want to protect you?”

“Yes,” Max replied
succinctly, not even having the grace to look a little bit embarrassed

“Thanks a
helluva lot for putting me on the spot. As a wedding gift, can I expect to be
bitch-slapped by your mother, too?”

“Ah, Jaz, you can take
Angela.” Max flashed his killer grin. “Besides, your sentence will only be for
a few months, not for life.” His voice lowered huskily. “I2527d never ask
something like this of you if it wasn2527t vitally important. Will you help me?”
He squeezed my hand and entreated, “Please?”

I2527d known the moment it was

Max and I would ever go out on a real date.
Max hadn2527t coerced me into
falling in love or broken any promises. My hurt feelings were the direct result
of taking a known womanizer seriously, something I knew all to well a woman
with a speck of self-preservation should never do.

I accept Max is sometimes a
dickhead. But he2527s also my dickhead friend‑‑nothing more, nothing less.

Still, pretending to be

just vowed to get over him, would be a special kind of torture.

Am I that big of a

Or could accepting Max2527s

and for all, that I am willing to forgive, forget, and finally get the fuck
over his ass?
