If you love fake marriages, forbidden heat, and grumpy men who never got over her, this ARC is for you.
They say you never forget your first time. Especially when it comes with a baby you never told him about.
Dia Beckett’s latest small-town romance is a delicious mix of heat, heartache, and high stakes. Faking It with my GRUMPY OFF-LIMITS NEIGHBOR (out May 27, 2025) brings the tension, the tenderness, and the ultimate forbidden trope: falling for the man you were never supposed to touch—again.
If you’ve got a soft spot for second chances, long-buried secrets, and construction-site chemistry that might just blow the whole thing up… this ARC’s calling your name.
Dive into Faking It with my GRUMPY OFF-LIMITS NEIGHBOR:
Getting pregnant after losing my virginity on a steamy one-night stand was not the plan.
Craig was my brother’s best friend, our next-door neighbor, and therefore off-limits.
One reckless night, I gave him my V-card, which changed everything.
Then he left for college, and I left town carrying a secret for over a decade.
Now I’m back, broke, and forced to work alongside Craig at my family’s construction company.
He’s still grumpy, all muscles, and glares.
But I can’t forget his sizzling kisses, hands on my body, and tenderness that night.
One stumble on-site, and I’m in his arms, one breath away from another bad decision.
When threatened with a hostile takeover, we reluctantly agree to a fake marriage to merge and defend our businesses.
But it feels less fake every day, because I’ve fallen for him.
I’m in his house.
His bed.
Protecting a secret that could destroy everything.
Once Craig finds out I had his child, this house of cards won’t just collapse—
It’ll take my heart too.
