Synopsis
He bought my company out from under me. Now he wants me back — as his fake girlfriend.
Cade Mercer publicly called my matchmaking app "charming but fundamentally flawed." Then my investors outvoted me and sold him my company.
Part of the sale: fake a relationship with him to promote the app.
The perfect story: CEO falls for the founder her own app matched him with.
The press eats it up. Downloads spike. My own algorithm matches us at ninety-four percent, which I'm choosing to ignore.
I told myself it was a data anomaly. Then he kissed me against a doorframe at two in the morning and I stopped caring about the data.
Now he says he will give me everything back.
Getting my company again was my plan.
Wanting him more than everything I built wasn't.
