They've hated each other for fifteen years. Now they have to get married.
Sadie Shaw and Jonah Fisher have been academic rivals since their first undergraduate literature class. Fifteen years later, their arguments are sharper, their competition fiercer, and their feelings are strictly professional.
Mostly.
When their dream job comes down to a choice between them, Sadie is determined to win. But then she discovers a loophole that could give them both everything they want.
The catch?
She and Jonah have to fake a marriage.
Now the man she's spent years trying to beat is suddenly part of her future, her plans, and her personal life. And as old rivalries turn into new complications, Sadie has to ask herself one dangerous question:
Is a fake marriage worth risking her very real heart?
A witty, swoony enemies-to-lovers rom-com packed with academic rivals, fake marriage chaos, sparkling banter and irresistible romantic tension — perfect for fans of The Love Hypothesis and The Hating Game.
