Counterfeit Connection by Emma Nichole

It’s easy to protect yourself when the relationship is fake…right?

The moment I laid eyes on Kaitlyn Logan, I knew she was special.

She was beautiful and full of spark.

And lucky for me, the answer to a seemingly impossible situation.

Be married, or well on the way, and my place at the head of the family business would be secured.

Kaitlyn offered up a plan to come to my aid.

Pretend to be in love until my father retires and I step into ownership of Orion.

After which, we go our separate ways.

Simple. Effective. Perfect.

Smile for the cameras. Touch her. Hold her. Kiss her.

I’ve been able to keep my relationships at arm’s length.

This wasn’t supposed to be any different, but then we crossed a boundary.

The facade quickly became a reality behind closed doors.

She may only be mine by contract, but the more I have her, the more time we spend together, the more the line between arrangement and actuality starts to blur.
