Most Likely to Pretend

reputation book one

They say some secrets never graduate.
Ours came back for the reunion.

Serena
Ten years ago, I had everything.
Prom queen. Class president. Golden girl voted Most Likely to Succeed.
And now? I’m divorced, drifting, and damn good at pretending I didn’t burn my perfect life to the ground.
I’ve spent a decade avoiding my hometown and the people who remember exactly who I used to be.
But now I’m stuck planning our ten-year reunion with sixty days to fake a life that looks nothing like the one I’m actually living. I need a date.
Someone convincing.
Someone deceitful enough to make people believe I’ve moved on.
So I choose the one man guaranteed to ruin me.
My ex-husband’s older brother.

Rhodes
Serena Whitmore has always been my weakness.
Ten years ago, I might’ve called it temptation.
But now she’s back, asking me to help her.
To touch her like it means nothing.
That’s the problem—she thinks this is a performance, a temporary fix.
But the second she puts her hands on me again, she makes a mistake she won’t be able to undo.
Because I don’t share.
I don’t forget.
And I’m done pretending she ever belonged to my brother.
She’s always been mine.
