Prologue
Allen Williams was at the peak of his career, but his partner messed up badly. Deciding to take time off while his friend settled things seemed like a good idea. He fell in love with a beautiful girl, but she broke his heart.
His friend asked him for a favor to fix the business.
No problem! Allen is fixer-upper.
Pretend like his friend and scare off his friend’s fiancee to avoid his engagement?
No problem!
Hands-off?
Sure, he’ll treat his friend’s girl like a sister; after all, he just got his heart shattered to pieces.
With one glimpse of his friend’s fiancée, Allen admits he’s in trouble. Suddenly this easy assignment got a lot mite trickier.
Allen’s caught between a rock and a hard place. On one side is the girl he fell in love with; on the other, it is his best friend. Which side should he choose? Annabelle is not only off limits but is also forbidden.
His heart and life are on the line. Annabelle agrees to the wedding, assuming he is the groom and his friend decides to marry Annabelle as he falls for her beauty. The wedding preparations start, and the gap between pretense and reality is blurring. Allen wonders if granting his friend this favor is such a bright idea.
How long can he keep lying to everyone? How long can he keep Annabelle and his friend away from each other? But the truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it isn’t going away. The stakes couldn’t have been higher. It is almost life or death: he has only one chance to make it right.
