‘Lana has mastered the art of the spicy romcom’ ALI HAZELWOOD

An instant USA Today bestseller and the perfect steamy contemporary romance from bestselling author Lana Ferguson

When two rival divorce lawyers can’t stay out of each other’s beds it turns out the gavel isn’t the only thing that’s banging . . .

As one of the top divorce lawyers in Chicago, Danica Pierce has no problem being married to her job, not when love only ends in hurt. When the biggest case of her career gives her a shot at making partner, it seems like nothing could possibly stand in her way . . . except for her infuriating secret: she’s sleeping with the enemy.

Ezra Hart is known for charming his way in and out of a courtroom. In the matter of winning Danica’s heart, however, he’s been far less successful. With her verdict to keep things purely physical with no chance of appeal, Ezra struggles to show Danica he’s more than the insufferable playboy she’s pegged him to be.

While Dani and Ezra battle it out in the courtroom, the real trial is the one happening between them. When Dani realizes that everything she knows of Ezra might be hearsay she must choose between her fear of trusting again and the feelings blossoming between her and the man she thought was her worst enemy.

Reviews

Elena Armas, New York Times bestselling author
The Fake Mate delivers the best of my two favourite worlds: a grumpy dark-haired doctor who-literally-howls to the moon, and the high stakes fake dating conundrum he's thrusted into. Make no mistake, Lana weaves fantastically the elements we love from a paranormal romance (namely, attractive shifters with extremely interesting drives), with the humour characteristic from the best contemporary rom-com you can get your hands on. This book is addictive, epically smutty and the breath of fresh air the romance genre didn't know it needed
