After barely surviving a media scandal, I live in the shadows—producing a podcast about healing while hiding my identity. Then Theo Navarro crashes into my quiet world. Grumpy. Gorgeous. Too observant.
When a sponsor demands on-camera appearances, I panic and lie—saying I’m in a relationship with Theo. He agrees to keep the secret, but only temporarily.
Now we’re stuck pretending. Smiling through gritted teeth. But the more time we spend together, the more real it feels. His touch. His voice. His honesty.
Then I discover he’s been researching me.
If he publishes what he knows, I lose everything I rebuilt. But if I don’t tell him the whole truth… I might lose the only man who ever made me feel seen.
