Chasing the Enemy

I have ninety days to convince a boardroom, a wedding's worth of relatives, and one insufferably smug man that I'm actually going to marry him.

My name is Delaney Marsh, and I just torched my career to keep my family's hotel group out of my ex-fiancé's hands — which means I now co-own that hotel group with Cassius Reyes, the man my family has hated for three generations. The trust that ties our companies together has one condition: we live under the same roof for the length of the merger review, or the whole thing collapses and my ex gets everything.

So we lie. We tell the board we're engaged. We tell his family, my family, and one nightmare of a joint anniversary gala that we're the real thing.

The problem is Cassius Reyes doesn't do anything halfway. Not the lie, not the ring, not the way he looks at me across a kitchen island like he's already decided how this ends. He's arrogant, he's maddening, he corrects my grammar in board meetings — and every single time he calls me "future Mrs. Reyes" in that low, private voice, my traitorous pulse forgets we're enemies.

Ninety days under one roof. One bed, when the renovation crew "accidentally" tears out the guest room. One rule — don't fall for the man you're supposed to be ruining.

I'm about to break every one of them.
