He hides his emotions deep, believing that money cannot break his heart or fulfill promises. However, when his reputation for being heartless jeopardizes a crucial business deal, he finds himself in a peculiar situation. Seeking a unique solution, he turns to Miss Geneviève Valery, a once-promising ballerina who is now jobless and homeless.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter refusing to become a wealthy patron's mistress, Geneviève finds herself on the streets. However, when she accidentally saves the life of the handsome Duke of Montcroix, she doubts that this encounter will fare any better than her previous encounters with nobility. To her surprise, Montcroix offers her an opportunity that she cannot refuse: to act as his fake fiancée in exchange for a fortune that will enable her to start over.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt first, neither is prepared for the growing feelings that develop between them. They both stand to gain from their arrangement, but only if they are willing to risk their hearts. As they navigate the complexities of their fake relationship, they discover that sometimes, the things we least expect can bring us the greatest happiness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Fake Fiancée\" is a witty and vivacious tale that will transport readers back to the glamour of the 90s while delivering a heartwarming love story that will leave you smiling.
