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?
