Sometimes fate needs to hit a charming playboy over the head more than once...

What do you do when a hot single mom approaches you with a proposition?

No, not that kind. Chastity wants to fake date me.

We may have hooked up once (okay, twice) when we were young but now she has me firmly in the friend zone. I'm ready to set my bachelor ways aside and take care of her and her son, but she is refusing because of some so-called curse.

Seriously. An actual curse. Where bad things will happen if she and I get horizontal together.

Even worse than that? She wants me to teach her how to date other men. To tutor her on flirting and using dating apps so she can find her happily-ever-after with another guy. It sounds like hell, right? But I agree to her crazy plan just so I can spend time with her.

Now I'm on the clock to convince a doubtful Chastity that fate is telling us I'm her forever... before she finds some other curse-free guy.

This is a friends-to-lovers, best friend's brother, single mom, fated-mates rom com where the hero falls hard and there's no third act breakup.
