About this listen
I teach men how to be the perfect boyfriend—for someone else.
As a professional plus-one, I’ve perfected the art of being charming, witty, and completely forgettable. I show up, dazzle board members and grandmothers alike, then disappear before anyone gets attached. It’s all business—a way to fund my real dream: a coaching program for romantically hopeless men who can’t figure out how to date like adults.
Rule number one? Never fall for a client.
Then comes Hayden Byrne. Wealthy, infuriatingly handsome, and entirely too perceptive, he hires me for an exclusive three-month contract that could launch everything I’ve been working toward. But from our first fake date, it’s clear: he doesn’t need coaching. He’s attentive, confident, maddeningly good at flirting…and somehow he's using all my tactics on me.
The longer we pretend, the more real it starts to feel. And when he looks at me, he doesn’t see the polished persona—I think he sees me.
But I’ve built a whole business on being the woman men thank in their wedding toasts, not the one they keep.
I never planned on becoming the woman he won’t let go.
