Description:
Estelle "Star" Hughes had two problems.
Problem one: her romance-addict mother had fallen catastrophically in love with a man Star had personally seen sleeping with her sorority sister last year.
Problem two: a week ago, Star had drunkenly kissed the hottest stranger in a bar — and just discovered he was her mother's boyfriend's *son.*
Star's solution: blow up the parents' relationship. Drive a wedge between the two Marlowe brothers. Get her mother out of harm's way before the wedding.
What she did not plan for: the cold, sharp older brother giving up his entire inheritance to back her career dream. The "scheming" younger brother actually falling for her. A dead-mother family secret she did not see coming.
And the man she was systematically supposed to discredit — turning out to be the only person who's ever looked at her like she was the answer.
A laugh-out-loud, scheming-heroine romcom about chaotic families, fake dating, and the man who chose you over the empire.
