A rebellious heiress. A homeless stranger. One reckless deal that changes everything. Diana Thompson has it all-except freedom. When she throws wine in her arrogant fiancé's face at Lagos's most exclusive restaurant, she trades her gilded cage for something far more dangerous: hiring a homeless man off the streets to play her new boyfriend. Henry is perfect for the role. Dignified despite his torn clothes. Articulate despite sleeping under bridges. Kind in ways that make Diana wonder if wealth has anything to do with character at all.

A rebellious heiress. A homeless stranger. One reckless deal that changes everything. Diana Thompson has it all-except freedom. When she throws wine in her arrogant fiancé's face at Lagos's most exclusive restaurant, she trades her gilded cage for something far more dangerous: hiring a homeless man off the streets to play her new boyfriend. Henry is perfect for the role. Dignified despite his torn clothes. Articulate despite sleeping under bridges. Kind in ways that make Diana wonder if wealth has anything to do with character at all. There's just one problem: Henry isn't who he says he is. For three years, billionaire CEO John James Smith has been hiding from a world that saw him as nothing but a bank account. Pretending to be homeless taught him who people really are when they think you have nothing to offer. And Diana? She crossed a street to talk to him simply because she saw him do something decent. But now she's paying him two million naira to pretend to love her. And somewhere between coaching sessions and charity galas and midnight rooftop confessions, the pretending stopped feeling like pretending. When the truth explodes in front of Lagos's elite at a black-tie fundraiser, Diana must decide: Can she love a man who lied about everything? Can she trust that the kindness was real even when the identity was fake? Can you build a future on a foundation of beautiful lies?
Elara Marceline writes stories that feel like movies you can live inside-filled with longing, quiet tension, and love that always finds a way through the mess. Her books explore what happens when ordinary people are caught between big emotions and impossible choices. She is the author of It Ends With Her, Pregnant by Her Ex, The Girl Who Left Everything, and The Ones We Shouldn't Love-all cinematic, emotionally rich love stories about the kind of people who stay in your mind long after the last page. When she isn't writing, Elara loves long walks, soft music, and quiet moments that feel like scenes from a film. She believes that every story is, at its heart, about finding your way back home-to love, to honesty, to yourself.
