  LOVERS HEIGHTS Annie Dyer Release Date: August 10   WILL BE FREE IN KINDLE UNLIMITED   The deal was simple… Pretend to be in a relationship without falling for each other. Only I’m not sure I can hold my end of the bargain. I’m the sensible one out of my brothers.   The reliable one.   The one who doesn’t make hasty decisions.   Or at least that was me until Ruby Murray turned up in my small town with her long legs and red lips, and a secret she needed me to help keep. It should be straightforward – I pretend to be her boyfriend, and she shows my ex-girlfriend I’ve moved on.   But this fake relationship feels too real for both of us. She’s sure we’re just friends – but the benefits suggest it’s a whole lot more. I’m sure that when she leaves town, she’ll be taking part of me with her. Ruby thinks we can carry on pretending.   She says that this is just a favour to help us both out. I say a secret wedding proves otherwise....
