Summary
Even though Tim Bradford is the best player on the L.A. Kings, his team might not renew his contract for another season because he is single. Lucy Chen, a world famous pop star constantly scrutinized for her dating life, thought her secret fiancée was the one, which is what she told the media in her excitement for her upcoming private wedding…that was canceled last minute. Their friends come up with a plan- Lucy and Tim should pretend to get married to help each other out. The only problem: faking it as a couple just might lead to real feelings.

Summary
Lucy Chen literally stumbled upon the only person in Los Angeles that did not recognize her from her various infamous movie roles. As a bookstore owner and book lover, of course Tim Bradford was not a fan of movies nor did he know who starred in them, so when Lucy came into his store, he had no idea he was talking to one of the greatest actresses in the world. One chance meeting, akin to the ones in the movies, brought them together, but their story could be better than the kind shown on the silver screen.
Title is the same name as a song by Taylor Swift.

Summary
“He works at Mid-Wilshire with my dad,” he whispers. “He’s a TO… or at least he was. I guess something happened and he was sent here to teach instead of training, though my father won’t tell me what. But it’s definitely a demotion, so I wouldn’t mess with him. He’s probably pissed about it and out to ruin our lives.”
Lucy chews thoughtfully on the end of her pen as she half listens, half wonders.
What could Officer Bradford have done to deserve a demotion?
And does she want to get on his bad side?
She kind of liked the spark she’d seen in him this morning, and the way he’d approached her and yelled at her had caused something warm and funny to happen in her belly.
She kind of wants to poke at him again, just to see what happens.
