No strings
attached.

and ambitious, Jules Ambrose is a former party girl who's focused on one

Dreamland Billionaire Series by Lauren Asher
Rowan
I'm in the
business of creating fairy tales.
Theme
parks. Production companies. Five-star hotels.
Everything
could be all mine if I renovated Dreamland.
My initial
idea of hiring Zahra was good in theory, but then I kissed her.
Things
spiraled out of control once I texted her using an alias.
By the time
I realized where I went wrong, it was too late.
People like
me don't get happy endings.
Not when
we're destined to ruin them.
Zahra
After
submitting a drunk proposal criticizing Dreamland's most expensive ride, I
should have been fired.
Instead,
Rowan Kane offered me a dream job.
The catch?
I had to work for the most difficult boss I'd ever met.
Rowan was
rude and completely off-limits, but my heart didn't care.
At least
not until I discovered his secret.
It was time
to teach the billionaire that money couldn't fix everything.
Especially
not us.
Declan
I'm
destined to become the next CEO of my family's media empire.
The only
problem? My grandfather's inheritance clause.

his dying wish of getting married and having an heir seemed impossible until my
assistant volunteered for the job.

was supposed to be the perfect solution to my biggest problem.
But the
more we act in love with the public, the more unsure I feel about our contract.
Caring
about Iris was never part of the deal.
Especially not when breaking her heart is inevitable.
Iris
My plan to
marry Declan was simple in theory.
Move in
together. Throw a wedding. Have a baby.
We set
rules to prevent any kind of issues.
Ones that
were never meant to be broken, no matter how much Declan tempts me.
But what
happens when our fake relationship bleeds into our real one?
Falling in
love was never an option.
At least
not for me.

Kane brother everyone gossips about behind closed doors.

brat. Washed-up athlete. High-functioning alcoholic.
No one knows
the real me but her.

Castillo - my childhood best friend and the only woman I ever loved.
When I
broke her heart six years ago, I promised to never return to Lake Wisteria.
I kept my
word until my grandfather's will changed everything.
To receive
my inheritance, I was tasked with spending a summer at the family lake house
before selling it.
The request
was simple in theory until my entire plan blew up on the very first day.
Turns out
Lana doesn't just live at the house, but she claims to own it too.
ALANA
Falling in
love with Callahan Kane was a mistake.
He told me
so before destroying my heart and our friendship six summers ago.
When he
promised never to come back, I foolishly believed him.
But then
Cal showed up again, intending to sell his grandfather's lake house.
The biggest
flaw in his plan?
My name is on the deed.

Book 1: Once Upon a Broken Heart
For as long as she can remember, Evangeline Fox has believed in true love
and happy endings . . . until she learns that the love of her life will marry
another.
Desperate to stop the wedding and to heal her wounded heart, Evangeline
strikes a deal with the charismatic, but wicked, Prince of Hearts. In exchange
for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of
his choosing.
But after Evangeline’s first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining
with an immortal is a dangerous game ― and that the Prince of Hearts wants far
more from her than she’d pledged. He has plans for Evangeline, plans that will
either end in the greatest happily ever after or the most exquisite tragedy.
Book 2: The Ballad of Never After
Not every love is meant to be.
After Jacks, the Prince of Hearts betrays her, Evangeline Fox swears
she'll never trust him again. Now that she’s discovered her own magic,
Evangeline believes she can use it to restore the chance of happily ever after
that Jack stole away.
But when a new terrifying curse is revealed, Evangeline finds herself
entering into a tenuous partnership with the Prince of Hearts again. Only this
time, the rules have changed. Jack isn’t the only force Evangeline needs to be
wary of. In fact, he might be the only one she can trust, despite her desire to
despise him.
Instead of a love spell wreaking havoc on Evangeline’s life, a murderous
spell has been cast. To break it, Evangeline and Jacks will have to do battle
with old friends, new foes, and magic that plays with heads and hearts.
Evangeline has always trusted her heart, but this time she’s not sure she can…
Two villains, one girl, and a deadly battle for happily ever after.
Evangeline Fox ventured to the Magnificent North in search of her happy
ending, and it seems as if she has it. She’s married to a handsome prince and
lives in a legendary castle. But Evangeline has no idea of the devastating
price she’s paid for this fairytale. She doesn’t know what she has lost, and
her husband is determined to make sure she never finds out…but first, he must
kill Jacks, the Prince of Hearts.
Zanders
Chicago hockey isn’t complete without me—everyone’s favorite player to
hate. I know my role, and I play it well. In fact, I thoroughly enjoy spending
the majority of my game time in the penalty box before leaving the arena with a
new girl on my arm each night.
What I don’t like is the new flight attendant on our team’s private
plane. She works for me, not the other way around. But I’ll be sure to remind
her of that, and I can guarantee, by the end of the season, she’ll be begging
to quit her job.
But every road trip blurs the lines, and I can’t quite figure out if I
keep pushing that flight attendant's call button to push her buttons or
if it’s more than that.
Stevie
I’ve been a flight attendant for years. I thought I’d see it all, but
when my new job lands me onboard working for the most egotistical and
self-righteous diva in the NHL, I start to second guess everything. Including
the promise I made to myself of never hooking up with an athlete again…no
matter how annoyingly tempting he may be.
Evan Zanders is unfiltered, unapologetic, and too attractive for his own
good. He loves his image, but I hate everything about it.
Everything but him.
RYAN
She’s a distraction, that’s what she is.
I’m the newest Captain of the Devils, Chicago’s NBA team, and the last
thing I needed this year was for Indy Ivers, my sister’s best friend, to move
into my apartment. She’s messy, emotional, and way too tempting.
But when the team’s General Manager vocalizes his blatant disapproval of
my promotion to Captain, referring to me as an unapproachable lone wolf with no
work-life balance, I can’t think of a better way to convince him otherwise than
pretending to date my outgoing roommate.
The only problem? Faking it feels far too natural.
Having a fake girlfriend wasn’t supposed to be messy but having Indy
under my roof and in my bed is complicated, especially when she wants all the
romantic parts of life that I could never give her.
INDY
I never imagined I’d be living with my best friend’s brother, NBA
superstar Ryan Shay. Even more unbelievable? He needs me to act as his loving
girlfriend who’s suddenly changed him into a friendly and approachable guy.
Because, well…he’s not. He’s controlling of his space and untrusting of
others.
Our arrangement isn’t one-sided, though. I’m in a wedding coming up, one
where every one of my childhood friends, including my ex-boyfriend, will be in
attendance, and there’s no better date than my ex’s celebrity hero.
Blurred lines make it almost impossible to separate real from fake.
Falling for my roommate was never part of the deal, especially when Ryan is
quick to remind me that he doesn’t believe in love.
I’m a romantic and can’t help fantasizing that he’ll change, but soon
enough, I find myself questioning if sharing a roof with my best friend’s
brother was the right move after all.
