Great Pretender - A Cocky Hero Club Novel - by Khardine Gray







Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward are excited to bring you the Cocky Hero Club: original works from various authors inspired by Keeland and Ward's New York Times bestselling Cocky Bastard series.


ABOUT THE BOOK

He needs a wife so he can get his inheritance.
I’m up to my eyeballs in debt with a sick father who needs treatment.
When he offers me a million dollars to be his fake wife, am I supposed to say no?

Chad Holdsworth is one of the wealthiest football stars in the country.
We’ve been best friends since birth.
So his shenanigans are nothing new to me.
The idea of getting married should have been easy.

Until he kissed me.

We then forgot we were supposed to be pretending.
And broke all the rules.

I know better than to fall for a playboy.
Even if he is my friend.
But I’m so lost in him I can’t see my way back.
With that panty-melting smile and his bedroom baby blues, he could get a nun in trouble.
What chance do I have of resisting?

If you play with fire, you will get burned.
Loving this man might be a mistake I’m not prepared for.

Great Pretender is a friends to lovers/fake fiancรฉe romance inspired by Park Avenue Player.

COCKY HERO CLUB






This is my first time reading this author. I enjoyed her writing style, how she tied the characters into the Cocky World and the characters, except for Pipers nasty ex and Tiffany.

This is a second chance at love with two besties who also pretend to be serious about each other. When Chad was 19 and Piper 16, they shared a kiss but they were not ready for each other so they never followed through. Now  10+ years later Piper has been dating a guy and living with him and Chad is terrified he has lost his chance. This causes him to make some awful mistakes that end up with his father giving him an ultimatum.

Meanwhile Piper is being kicked out of her house because two weeks before she found her boyfriend cheating. But since he owns the place he is evicting her. With nowhere to go, she goes to visit Chad and hopes for a bed for the night. And so starts their second chance at love and a plot to save Chad's inheritance.

The Cocky World connection is through Elodie and Hollis as Piper is working alongside Elodie as she works to be a doctor. 

There is also a slight angle of Piper trying to help her dad who is depressed and drinking too much at the loss of his second wife.  Piper is paying for his rehab and hoping to help him out. Its one reason she is so broke and has nowhere to go what her ex evicts her.

This was a very enjoy second chance at romance with a fake romance and two best friends falling for each other.
