Cleaning up his penthouse was easy - pretending to date her boss? That’s a whole other mess.
The addictive, fake dating romance from TikTok sensation Lynn Painter
‘If you are craving some COM with your ROM-look no further! This one was SO MUCH FUN!’ 5* Reader Review
--
Abi is a professional cleaner, so it’s ironic when she’s forced to move out because of an infestation in her building. Thanks, Apartment 2B!
Declan is a busy man, working his way up at Hathaway Holdings. Which is why he’s never met the woman who cleans his penthouse every week.
Abi needs a place to stay, and Declan is out of town, so the solution seems simple and, crucially, free.
When Declan’s parents tell him they met his girlfriend at his apartment, he's surprised to say the least. But it is nice to have them off his back about being single for a change. . .
Declan finds out who Abi really is, and decides to makes her a proposition: pretend to date him, and he’ll provide everything she needs.
What could go wrong? It’s business, not pleasure. Right?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this sparkling rom-com, Painter (Happily Never After) pairs a maid and a millionaire. Abi Mariano needs a place to sleep while her apartment is being fumigated. Declan Powell, the wealthy owner of one of the apartments she cleans, is out of town for a week, so she thinks she can crash at his place without anyone ever knowing. Then his parents show up at his penthouse, see Abi walking out of the bedroom, and assume she's Declan's girlfriend, Abby, whom they've never met—for good reason: Declan made her up to get them to stop bugging him about his love life. Abi plays along before making a quick exit, but when Declan realizes what happened, he tracks her down and offers her $40,000 to continue the ruse during a weekend of work events. Faking romance (and staging some swoony PDA) leads to real feelings, but Declan and Abi both fear revealing that their emotions have deepened. With falsehoods, miscommunications, and socioeconomic disparity complicating their way forward, the path to happily ever after is rocky. Painter injects a familiar trope with both levity and genuine emotion. Readers will especially be drawn to Abi, whose smarts and sass make her the perfect match for the more staid but driven Declan. This is a treat.
