Portraying herself as a girlfriend was so not part of the job description.  Brenna Linwood is thrilled to be the personal assistant to a Greek tycoon for the summer.  The money will help immensely with her younger brothers college tuition.  When she meets Markos Christakis for the first time, she’s overwhelmingly attracted to him but struggles to keep things professional.  When he hires her to be his make-believe girlfriend to get his family off his back, she finds herself in an unusual situation.

Markos is happy with his life.  Who wouldn’t be happy being rich and gorgeous with women at his beck and call?  The problem is his family.  Now his mother is parading eligible girls in front of him.  The horror!  To circumvent her plans, he hires his personal assistant to take on another role:  that of his make-believe girlfriend.  But the feelings she inspires, include the desire, are anything but make-believe.  When he begins to fall in love with her for real, the deception he’s woven threatens to pry them apart.

Markos falls with a bang and never knows what hit him.  Brenna struggles with the fact that she’s perpetuating a lie, getting paid for it, and is actually having sex with her boss!  Her moral dilemma causes a rift that Markos has to work hard to repair.  His past history as a player really works against him. 

The romance between the two was sweet as well as sultry, and this was a familiar favorite storyline that made for a great escape.
