Emmett Hill is the perfect gentleman. At least thatβs what his PR team wants the world to think. Tall, handsome, and wickedly charming, Emmett is in the midst of a career comeback, having landed the role of a villain in a popular TV show. The only problem is, Emmett has come a long way from the βnice guyβ characters he used to play and his old squeaky clean image is quickly being tarnished by bar fights, womanizing and bad boy behaviour. Considering heβs two years shy of forty, itβs an act he needs to drop. And fast. Enter Alyssa Martin. At twenty-eight, Alyssa is tired and ready for a change. Her job as office manager has grown stagnant and unfulfilling, while sheβs become continuously frustrated with Vancouverβs lackluster dating scene, always searching for Mr. Right in a city of Mr. Wrongs. When Emmett and Alyssaβs paths cross at a mutual friendβs wedding, their chemistry is off-the-charts hot, culminating in a steamy one-night stand. What neither expected was for the media catch wind of their coupling β and run with it. Now Emmett has to convince Alyssa to date him for the sake of his image. Her curvy, cute and βnormalβ persona is just the ticket to smoothing out his reputation, while Emmett provides Alyssa with the excitement and change her life has been lacking. The only problem is, the two fight like cats and dogs outside of the bedroom. And considering their arrangement is just for show, they shouldnβt be in the bedroom with each other anyway. Right? Try telling them that.
