Faking it is about to get real . . .
Drew Malone is a grumpy neurosurgeon, a superstar researcher, and my new boss. He’s also a man who needs a fake girlfriend, because the daughter of the hospital’s biggest donor just asked him out. Clearly, he can’t turn her down without a good excuse.
And apparently I’m the excuse, because Dr. Malone claims I’m his girlfriend. It’s a big step up from being his admin assistant, and no one is more surprised than me.
It’s all pretend, of course, and he promises he’ll be a gentleman. We’re going to play tennis, not play doctor.
Except he looks so good in scrubs that I wouldn’t mind seeing him out of them. And I’m starting to think he’s got a softer heart than he lets on.
But Dr. Malone made it clear he’s not looking for a real relationship. So the look in his eyes when he teases me? Must be fake. And I’m not really catching feelings—that’s just a placebo effect.
Placebo Effect is a sizzling fake-dating, grumpy boss medical romance. Dual POV. Moderate spice (Open door).
This is book two in the Somerset Surgeons series, but can be read as a standalone.
