But the sexy Southern CEO turns out to be a challenge she can't resist, because if anyone needs to meet his soul mate, it's this man.

Aber alles, worüber ich Bescheid wissen muss, sind die hunderttausend Pfund, die ich bekomme, wenn ich seine dunkelsten Geheimnisse aufdecke.

I knew the terms: marry a stranger on the spot, handpicked by experts just for me. But that's not what's happening. My bride is no stranger. And she's wearing a black dress reminiscent of the one she wore the last time we spoke… at prom. Surely she's gotten over what happened at prom by now. Except... it only takes me about five minutes to realize she hasn't. And now, I'm married to the one woman I did wrong in my life. But she still trembles at my touch. Either this is about to be the biggest mistake of my life or the greatest second chance in history. And all of America gets to watch it...

After the stunt my ex pulled, no one would blame me if I swore off men forever, especially one like Mr Jay Anderson, Hollywood’s sexiest heartthrob. Maybe undressing me with his striking blue eyes as I perform the safety demonstration on a flight to LA is normal behaviour for him. Maybe not. But I know one thing for sure, he should come with a warning label. Because once you meet a man like Jay Anderson, there is no going back.

Evie Berry is a 30-year-old wannabe screenwriter who spends her days managing a London cinema bar and making the podcast Pasta La Vista with her best friend, Ben. She's also obsessed with Hugo Hearst. Have you heard of him? Of course you have. He's only one of the most influential and not to mention swoon-worthy best-selling writers of his generation.

Wobei es ihm sicher gefallen würde, wenn er wüsste, dass ich und Sebastian etwas miteinander haben.
