Women came easy…
But then, for photographer, Xander Chase, most things came easy…except love. His portraits are renowned for revealing the heart and soul of his subjects, yet, he keeps his own heart hidden behind a playboy facade. All he cares about is revenge, and for that, he needs a stand-in girlfriend for a weekend fling.
Struggling actress, Imani Brooks, has been offered the coveted role of a lifetime…playing the part of an escort in a renowned play. When Xander proposes a weekend of research in Paris, she jumps at the chance. Their pretend relationship is the perfect way to dig into her role. She just has to remember that what they have is only for show. Xander is not the kind of man to fall in love.
Love is harder that it looks…
Everything goes as planned until passion erupts and blurs the line between fiction and reality. Can Imani get past the walls Xander’s built around his heart and find the real man hidden behind the camera lens? Or will Xander’s hunt for revenge leave her heart in shreds?

Excerpt:
Imani let herself
into their place with her brass key and smiled. Careful
now, it’s just pretend. Even if it
was just pretend, she liked thinking of this as their place. Soon, she would go
back to her normal life. She needed to call Felix tonight. He'd left for
Ireland two days ago and he wouldn’t be back for another two days, so they were
due for a catch-up. But she wouldn't be able to see him until the weekend if
her rehearsal schedule kept up. With her rehearsal schedule she was way
overbooked, but she’d find time. She missed her bestie.
When she let
herself in, the lights in the kitchen were on low, but the living room was
dark. Had she left them on? Had Xander turned them on for her remotely so she
wouldn’t come home to a dark house? He knew she had no idea how to work the
remote security app. He’d taken to doing things like that for her. She didn’t
know what had changed, but after the club last weekend, he’d been different.
As if some
invisible barrier between them had been torn down by force. If she didn’t know
better she'd say he was the perfect boyfriend. He'd said he was meeting Lex for
a drink tonight, so she didn't expect him for a while. Maybe she’d have some
time to shave and do the girl thing. As she slipped her shoes off, she tossed
her keys on the table in the foyer.
But when she
reached for the light switch in the living room, a deep voice halted her.
"Leave the light off, Imani."
Her heart
skipped, but she instantly quelled the panic. She knew that voice.
"Xander? I thought you were hanging with Lex tonight. Why are you sitting
in the dark?" She reached for the light switch again and his voice got
even deeper. "I said, leave it off."
She stilled, then licked
her lips nervously. "Is everything okay?"
She dropped her
bag on the kitchen counter.
"Come here."
Something wasn’t
right. Tentatively she stepped toward the shadow on the couch. "Okay. You
want to tell me what’s going on?" When she reached the couch, she paused,
unsure of what to do next.
"Closer."
Her gaze slid to
the floor so she could avoid any obstacles in her way. "Xander? You’re
freaking me out a little. What’s the matter? Talk to me.”
“What's the
matter is I need you. Fuck now, Talk later.”
