Sophie Laurent, the heir to a prestigious chain of luxury restaurants, has always believed in the fairytale—the perfect life, the perfect love, and the perfect future. But when she’s about to propose to her charming boyfriend, Nick, in the Maldives, everything shatters. After years of believing in their flawless relationship, Sophie walks in on Nick making out with his assistant, the woman who’s always been a little too friendly, a little too available. Devastated and humiliated, Sophie decides to take matters into her own hands. Fearing the scandal and the pressure of her family’s legacy, she does something rash. In a moment of fury, she forces the engagement ring onto a random stranger—a man she has no reason to trust. To her shock, he says “I do.” That man? Gabriel Martinez, the youngest billionaire on the Fortune 500 list, a man Sophie hates—and yet, someone who is more intimately tied to her past than she could have imagined. Gabriel was once her childhood friend, the boy she loved, until he disappeared without a word, leaving her heartbroken and bitter. But now, he’s back, and he’s not going anywhere. Sophie and Gabriel find themselves in a tangled web of secrets, revenge, and rekindled love as they navigate their fake engagement, all while trying to uncover why Max left—and what he’s been hiding all these years.
