Theo
I have one chance to pitch my book to the biggest movie producer in Hollywood. I expected it to happen in his office, not on a couples’ cruise. No problem. I have a friend—and I use that term loosely—who owes me a favor. Bet Kaira never thought this was how I would collect.

Kaira
When Theo calls, I figure he wants me to read his latest manuscript, not to be his fake girlfriend. I’ve written this story several times so I know how it’s supposed to turn out. But this is different. It’s strictly business and a happily-ever-after never enters my mind. Even the thought is laughable.
