Diamonds aren’t forever… Unless they come with desire!

For years, I’ve striven to conceal my blazing attraction to my boss, Aiden Hawke. Aiden never mixes business with pleasure.

But when he demands I play his fake fiancée for a year to secure a deal, my heart almost combusts.

Once he marks me as his to the press and moves me into his penthouse, Aiden’s every heated glance is a special kind of torture. As his icy walls come down, I know I’m playing with fire.

Because my compulsion to be his will linger long after this engagement’s expiration date…

Title: My Fiancée Promotion
Series:  Forbidden Bosses #1
Author:  Emmy Grayson
Published:  May 26, 2026
Publisher:  Harlequin Presents
My Rating:  4.5 stars

My Fiancée Promotion begins the Forbidden Bosses series with an intense situation between Seraphina and Aiden when he pulls her into his world by asking, or demanding that she pose as his fake fiancée… for business purposes only for one year.  Neither expected the fiery connection between them nor the very real emotions that this so-called fake relationship would reveal.

I enjoyed My Fiancée Promotion very much, and for several reasons.  Their story is well-written, as I expect from this author, and it features a realistic couple who are both holding back from letting each other know how they’ve felt for some time now.  They are both professionals who have kept those feelings under wraps.  When their paths meet in an unusual setting, Aiden will make a perhaps outrageous proposal that will take their emerging feelings to the next level.  Their story is both emotional and passionate.  I enjoyed watching them truly fall in love, lowering those walls to allow something special to develop between them.  I loved seeing Seraphina heal from her past with a good man who gives her the happy-ever-after they both deserve.  If you love an engaging, charming romance with some heat and all the emotions you could ask for, then you’d enjoy Seraphina and Aiden’s story.
