Summary
The only thing Xaden Riorson hates more than finding out he made a mistake while coding for the program he has been been working on for three months straight, is having to deal with another unrealistically beautiful fictional character that will steal Violet's attention from him.
So, when both things happen on the same day and Garrick announces Imogen just got his girlfriend hooked on another romantasy saga, understandably so he doesn't take the news very well.
Add in, he already has one sided beef with the fucking Duke of Tyrrendor, he wonders if he'll have to add this Rhysand, High Lord of the Night Court or whatever to the list.
It's always these men wielding shadows that give him the most trouble.

Summary
When Bodhi and Ridoc plan their elaborate wedding down in Mexico and inform Violet that her ex is coming, she comes up with a fake boyfriend to avoid dealing with it all. But instead she finds herself in an even bigger mess when she accidentally tells them that she's dating Xaden Riorson, the bane of her existence and someone she has claimed to hate for years. When he accepts her request to play along she's shocked, but he has reasons of his own to go along with the lie. As the week goes on the line between love and hate gets blurred and Violet can't help but forget the reasons she hated him in the first place. And memories of a night from years ago slip back into her mind and remind her of time she didn't hate him...not at all.

Summary
Violet Sorrengail gets dragged to fancy events a lot - like some random betrothal announcement in Tyrrendor - downside to being the daughter of the king's head of security. Her date is often her childhood best friend - son of her mother's aide - and the man both their parents want her to marry. Unfortunately for them (and fortunately for her), he and the king's eldest son have been in love forever.
Xaden Riorson, heir to the throne of Tyrrendor, is supposed to have his betrothal between him and a Poromish noble announced tonight. In a last ditch effort to get out of it, he convinces his father to give him two hours to find an alternative.
He's not expecting to find love in a handful of hours - just a better option - but sometimes the gods know exactly what you need ...
