A kiss from Stokes Whitlock is good for a girl's soul.

If you ask anyone to describe the great state of Kentucky, odds are they’ll most likely answer you with “Bourbon and horses,” but if you me, the only thing I’ll ever respond with is “Derby hats.”

Big hats. Small hats. Elaborate hats. Simple hats. I love them all. Every. Single. One. And because of this, I've always known I would one day own a Derby hat store. At 25, I've back in my hometown of Louisville, and my dream has finally come true. With the season officially underway, my brand-new shop is gorgeous, the inventory is stocked, and I'm ready to go. My only problem is William Stokes Whitlock III.

Stokes is tall, insanely handsome, heir to one of the largest thoroughbred farms, and my best friend’s brother. He’s also annoying, incredibly boring, arrogant, and for over half of my life, my sworn enemy. Only now, it seems he needs a favor. As for why, he won’t say.

For two months, I’ll be his girlfriend, and in return he’ll use his society status to help promote my new shop. Seems simple enough, right? Wrong. I think his timing couldn’t be worse, but the way he sees it, it’s the best. The best for who—that’s to be determined.

How do we pretend to be in love when all we’ve ever felt is hate?

Can I do this?

Can he?

Especially knowing it’s fake...or is it?
