What started as a favor might be my forever.

I’ve built my life around control—my reputation, my career, my heart. But when a scandal threatens Saola Technology, the company my brothers and I built from the ground up, I need a clean slate to keep the vultures at bay.

Enter Jasmine Ross, the little sister of my two best friends and the last person I ever expected to marry. She’s everything I’m not—wild, untamed, impossible to pin down. She’s spent her life running from attachments, but now, she needs me just as much as I need her.

A fake marriage solves both our problems: I get my redemption story, and she gets to stay in London to be the guardian of a teenager who’s captured her fierce, wandering heart. It’s perfect on paper.

But from the moment Jasmine walks into that London café, all fiery eyes and restless energy, I know I’m in trouble. Because this isn’t just about saving face anymore—it’s about her.

The more time we spend under the same roof, the harder it is to remind myself that this is pretend. And when the lines between what’s real and what isn’t blur, I start to wonder: will we survive the fallout if this all comes crashing down?

Because Jasmine isn’t just my fake wife. She’s the one thing I never saw coming. And now, I don’t know if I can let her go.

“London Calling” is a standalone, marriage-of-convenience, contemporary romance.

END NOTE: While London Calling is a work of fiction, student homelessness is a very real issue across the globe. The glimpse you see in this story only scratches the surface—reality is often far more dire. As a world traveler, I once found myself in a similar situation as the main character, moved by an overwhelming desire to help a homeless student. If you’d like to learn more about the challenges students face both in the U.S. and the UK, here are a few resources/articles to read:
