Mash Cassidy is a smooth-talking werewolf with one major flaw—he can’t commit. For fifteen years, he’s dodged responsibility, his pack, and anything resembling adulthood. Now Alpha’s had enough. With Harvest Fest looming, she demands Mash settle down with a “suitable” wolf. To dodge a fate of forced domestic bliss, Mash hatches a ridiculous plan: fake a mate.
Enter Cian Barker, his hipster best friend and tech genius. Cian’s been hopelessly in love with Mash for years, but he’s perfected the art of pretending. Until Mash asks him to be his fake boyfriend—for two whole months.
Between scent-marking, Harvest Fest chaos, and long-buried feelings, their little charade spirals into something neither can control. Can friendship survive when pretending feels a little too real?
