Growing up in her large, crazy Serbian family, Camryn Covic became an expert at shutting down her emotions in order to maintain her sanity. But when she loses her apartment, her job, and her boyfriend all in one day, she hits her breaking point. Worse, if her family finds out she's single again, her sister's upcoming wedding will be a disaster. The bride-to-be has a plan, though. A plan that involves an old friend, a pretend relationship... and the probability of ending up in a padded cell. This time for real.

Troy Lanske agrees to the insane charade only because, when he was a lonely foster child, Camryn was his lifeline. But she isn't the idealistic girl he remembers. She's become so jaded that she doesn't even believe in love anymore. He sets out to restore her faith in happily-ever-afters, but his plan backfires when the fake relationship begins to feel all too real. Falling for the one woman he can't have could mean losing more than just his honorary family. He could lose everything.

Warning: Contains a Playgirl-material hero and a woman who thinks she couldn't be any more wrong for him. Enter one "Big Fat Overly Romantic Serbian Family." Sit back and watch the magic happen. 


The Dysfunctional Test

Troy fiddled with the bowtie for his tux, trying to figure out what in the hell Cam meant by that look on her face earlier. Had she taken his advice and asked John out? Because that's not exactly what he'd meant when he'd said fall in love. In the optimistic, stupid part of his brain, he'd hoped she'd choose him. Hoped she'd fallen in love with him.


Growling, he stripped the tie from his collar.


John took it from him. Without a word, he fixed the tie and nodded.


John grinned and sobered, then grinned again. Whatever he and Cam had discussed had the man happy. 


"Why are you grinning like an idiot?" Okay, not exactly smooth, Troy.


John shook his head. "Let's just say I'm saving a dance for your woman if this all works out tonight."
