Mark - a Cinderella-inspired Marine and billionaire romance

She's a Marine. He's a billionaire.

Can these opposites pull off a fake relationship?

After a broken engagement, Cora is done with dating. She wants to finish out her final year in the military stationed in Okinawa, Japan, without any more complications. Then one night, she convinces an attractive stranger to help her escape an uncomfortable situation.

Mark is intrigued by this beautiful woman who fabricates a story of them being old friends. He grew up a military brat and wants nothing to do with that world. But he could use their instant relationship to ward off attempts at being set up at the grand opening of his resort next weekend.

He makes her an offer--escape.

All she has to do is pretend to be his girlfriend and then she'll be pampered with all the luxury his resort has to offer.

One night. One fake date. A perfect plan.

"Since I pulled off the part of an old friend to get you out of your predicament, you can do something similar to get me out of mine," Mark proposed.

Cora furrowed her brows. "How?"

"You pretend to be my girlfriend at the grand opening of my hotel on Saturday."

Cora laughed. "That a bigger commitment than the thirty seconds where you acted like my old friend."

Ah, she wasn't easy to convince, intriguing him all the more. "True. I'll make you an offer to sweeten the deal."

She raised her chin. "Oh, and what are you planning to offer me, Mark?"

He fixed a steady gaze on her. "Escape."
