Furred Lines by Rhea Fox

So what if they made a marriage pact as kids? So what if Noah Bright has grown into the exact kind of beautiful chaos Lewis has never managed to get over? He’s sure Noah doesn’t even remember.
But when Noah misunderstands Lewis and thinks he’s offering himself up as his Winter Husband — for social media only, obviously — Lewis can’t bring himself to correct him.

Not when this might be his one chance to have Noah, even if it’s only pretend.
Noah Bright’s life is a complete failure.
Running away to Bali seemed like a brilliant idea, right up until his problems packed a bag and came with him. Now he’s nearly thirty, back in Scotland for the winter, broke, freezing, and staying in a hovel he refuses to call home.
It’s temporary. Obviously.

Then Lew—his big brother’s best friend, childhood crush, and inconveniently gorgeous Tiger man—offers to play his boyfriend online so Noah can make some much-needed cash. And really, there are worse things than having a big, beefy tiger as a winter husband.

But the longer they fake it, the harder it gets to remember where the performance ends.

Lewis is ready to do anything to keep Noah past cuffing season. Noah wants to stay more than he wants to admit. But choosing Lewis would mean admitting Bali wasn’t the dream, coming home wasn’t failure, and maybe the life he’s been running from is the one he was meant to build all along.
