Love Happens Anyway

Derek needs a fake boyfriend for Christmas. With his career in chaos and his parents determined to see him settled, hiring someone to survive New York’s holiday parties and family dinners seems like the perfect solution. No strings. No complications. Definitely no falling in love.

Luke desperately needs twenty thousand dollars to save Halligans, his family’s bar in Manhattan’s Financial District. Pretending to date a wealthy stranger over Christmas should be easy money, until fake kisses start lasting too long and the chemistry between them becomes impossible to ignore.

Derek was supposed to survive Christmas. Luke was supposed to save the bar. Neither expected a business arrangement to turn into something they’re terrified to lose.

Love Happens Anyway is a standalone Christmas M/M romance featuring fake boyfriends, millionaire/commoner, relationship for money, opposites attract, New York at Christmas, family pressure, unexpected feelings, and a fake romance that becomes very real.
