So I boldly asked for the position of new wife. I almost died of embarrassment when I found out he was the new CEO of the company. Shit! Did I just proposition my billionaire playboy boss? And did he just tell me no? Luke: I desperately need a fake wife to clean up my image. I was intrigued by the sassy secretary who walked into my office after eavesdropping on my conversation.
