How to Fake a Southern Gentleman

Proud single mom Holly Simmons and ambitious journalist Luisa Mart n Moreno have nothing in common--until Atlanta's most powerful man, Griggs Caldecott Johnson III, turns both their lives upside down. Griggs is threatening Holly's job as the events manager at the hoity-toity Dogwood Hills Country Club, while Luisa gets fired for trying to expose his scheme to defraud an immigrant family and snatch up their land for a luxury development.

Determined to fight back, the women team up to infiltrate Griggs's inner circle. Their secret weapon? Elijah Denvil Sweet, a sexy hustler with a knack for reinvention. With a makeover, etiquette lessons, and a little help from Professor Pridmore--a charming, handsome, and single linguistics professor--Eli transforms into "Tripp," the kind of Southern gentleman Griggs might just trust.

But as the plan takes shape, so do tender and unexpected feelings neither woman saw coming--with the very men helping them get justice.

With sparkling wit, strong female friendship, and slow-burn romance, How to Fake a Southern Gentleman is perfect for anyone who's ever felt underestimated--and longs for a love that plays by its own rules.
