Turns out his sports charity for kids could really use the publicity. Lying to help children? Who on earth would refuse?Dani’s plan is simple: fake a relationship in public, seduce Zaf behind the scenes. The trouble is, grumpy Zaf is secretly a hopeless romantic—and he’s determined to corrupt Dani’s stone-cold realism. Before long, he’s tackling her fears into the dirt. But the former sports star has issues of his own, and the walls around his heart are as thick as his... um, thighs.The easy lay Dani dreamed of is now more complex than her thesis.
