Everyone thinks I’m the impulsive, carefree joker.
And honestly? I let them.

If people are laughing, they’re not looking too closely.

But one reckless night in Vegas changes everything. Now all eyes are on me… and there’s a wedding ring on my finger.

My new wife is the one woman I’ve always wanted but never allowed myself to dream about.

Ria.

She’s completely off-limits.
My boss.
My best friend’s older sister.
And now, somehow, my wife.

Staying married is the only way to protect her reputation and her career, so we agree to fake it. I can pretend to be a lot of things… but pretending to love Ria Stone?

That’s impossible.

Because I’ve loved her for years.

Long before we ever said I do.

And now that she’s mine, even if it started as a mistake, I’m not wasting the chance to prove it. She’s always owned my heart.

Now I’m going to show her exactly what that means.
