Synopsis

When Payal Mehra's detached parents insist she marry fellow Londoner and serial dater Ayaan Malhotra in order to save their own company, she has a choice: get disowned from the luxurious life they've funded and put her dreams on hold while she works a soul-sucking day job...or get engaged to save her family's fortune and maybe rescue her own vision of a dream come true. Ayaan Malhotra has always been the spare to his brother, the golden child heir to his parent's company. A little wild, a little broken, and desperate to prove himself, he agrees to get engaged to Payal—on the condition that he gets 50 percent of his parents' company. He has no interest in Payal but would give anything for his parents' respect. As the two race toward an impending engagement ceremony date and actually start to play nice as a couple, they realize that maybe they aren't just in this for business...and love might be in their future after all.

Payal moves to US from UK for school and stayed there while working on her fashion line. Her family shows their affection by paying for al......more

Goodreads review by Emma on September 07, 2023

I was kind of indifferent on this book... Despite all of the sexual references, it was very much closed door and I didn't feel like we got to understand why their chemistry was so irresistible. The third act break-up also made little to no sense, as they were both using each other from the start. So......more
