    Summary

    The room was hot. Mira stirred, half-asleep, wondering why the air conditioning wasn't working. The Bellagio had central air. It was always perfect. Why was it so hot?

    Something was pressed against her back. Someone. An arm around her waist. Mira's eyes opened.

    Wrong ceiling. Wrong room. The walls were beige and water-stained, not the crisp white of her hotel suite.

    Her head throbbed. The kind of headache that only came when you'd had too much to drink. The arm around her waist was warm.

    An arm around her waist?

    Mira looked down. Bare skin. Her bare skin. She was naked. A sinking feeling hit her stomach.

    What happened?

    Chaebol daughter Kang Mira has never made a choice in her life. K-pop idol Ryu Rumi is rebuilding after a scandal. Cho Zoey works three jobs while her parents call music a hobby.

    One Vegas night. One bar. One 4 AM Elvis wedding.

    Now they're legally married. Annulment means public record. Divorce takes months. And Kang Mira needs to figure out what the hell she's going to do about it. Even if it's the last thing she does.

    Summary

    The client hadn’t really requested anything at all; their emails had been almost overly polite, if not jarringly formal, and had selected only the most vanilla options on the questionnaire she provided. Certainly a far cry from the standard practices of her usual clientele, but this one had paid upfront and picked this expensive hotel, and Mira’s fees are dear enough on their own that she had been coloured intrigued. 

    Mira takes a left down the hallway after leaving the elevator and finds herself at the door to the room. She doesn’t steel herself—doesn’t need to. She can handle anything. Has handled most things. Mira swipes the keycard and lets herself in. 

    The person sitting on the bed is probably the last thing she expects.

    In which Mira is a professional, Rumi is socially inept, and Zoey is also there. Let's hope nobody catches feelings.

    Summary

    “Hmm.” Zoey looked back at her notebook, skimming her finger down to the bottom of the page as she scanned her scribbled notes. “Idea thirty: pretend to date Rumi.”

    “You or Mira?”

    “Both of us.”

    Rumi snorted. “How would that help?”

    “No, hold on,” Mira said, a smile slowly spreading across her face. “I think she’s onto something here.”

    ---

    Zoey and Mira both have problems, and the obvious solution is pretending to date Rumi.

    Summary

    “Hey, babe. Been looking everywhere for you.”

    The voice was low, honeyed, warm in all the right places. It fell over Rumi in a way the man’s voice hadn’t, settling into her bones and gnawing faintly, already leaving impressions on her marrow.

    And yet another touch, this one lighter, a palm splayed across the small of her back, a second body pressing into hers from behind.

    “Yeah, we thought we lost you for a sec there.” This voice, a little higher, but no less deadly.

    Not one, but two strangers.

    “Can’t you see you’re interrupting something?” the guy snapped at them.

    “Can’t you see,” the first voice mocked, “she’s not yours?”

    OR

    Two women step in when a guy gets pushy with Rumi at a bar. What happens after is meant to be a one-night stand, nothing more.

    But rarely do things turn out exactly the way they're meant to.

    Summary

     Six years since Rumi disappeared off the face of the Earth.

    Well, alright, maybe that was dramatic. Sure, she'd left with little warning, but there still was some. A short 10 minute conversation filled with yelling, screaming, cussing, and then she was gone. An uber. 3 suitcases, 2 eyes full of what Zoey remembered to be shame and pity, and one extremely broken family.

    --OR--

    The last thing married couple Zoey and Mira expected was a text from longtime ex and bandmate, Rumi.
