Lacey

He’s my best friend and a self-made billionaire. Oh, and did I forget that Cash Darby is sexy as sin?

Not only that, but now he needs me to be his fake fiancé to appease his parents after he breaks things off with his girl.

I’ve known Cash my entire life, since we were kids on the playground, so when he calls me at three o’clock in the morning and says he needs me, I do the one thing that any best friend would do. I hop on a plane and gallop to his rescue. And that’s when he tells me about the lie he’s told his family.

How am I supposed to play pretend when I’ve loved Cash for far longer than I’d ever care to admit?

But I can’t do this. I won’t lose him.

Cash

I knew asking her to play pretend was a bad idea. Lace is better than that, and I know she hates lying to my parents. I’ve had feelings for Lacey for far too long, and now we’ve got to keep ourselves in check because I cannot - and will not - lose my best friend.

But the first night we’re together intimately, I almost lose my mind. Everything I tucked away for so many years comes rushing to the surface, and I yearn for her like I’ve never yearned for anyone before.

Can I convince her that what we’re feeling is for real and turn my fake fiancé into my real wife?

Trapped in Lace is book two in the Emerald City Billionaires series. It is a hot, steamy best-friends-to-lovers novella featuring a sinfully sweet billionaire and his beautiful best friend. Enjoy the heat!
