Jerry Cole

Heir For Hire Jerry Cole

Basil Walker didn't want to take over the family business. All that he wanted to do in college was study English, keep his head down and pursue writing on the side. In theory, that should have been fine. Basil is the heir of the multimillion Walker pulp mill empire and he should get to do whatever he wants. However, parental expectations have made this impossible. Since the Walker dynasty wants him to study business, that's what he does. That proves to be more difficult than it sounds. He is struggling to be taken seriously at his job in the family business and things only get worse when his parents make what they expect from him very clear. They want heirs, grandchildren to preserve the Walker name, and they want them now. Trevor Damico is struggling. Despite his good looks, he never wanted to go into modeling. He would much rather be taken seriously as an actor, which is the reason that he's doing his Master's Degree in Performance. Meanwhile, he lives with his best friend from undergrad, Sage Walker. Determined not to do what his parents want, Basil goes to his sister with a brilliant plan. He's going to hire a man to pretend to be his boyfriend and Sage's roommate is the perfect candidate. Out and gorgeous, Basil can sell the idea to a struggling Trevor as an extended performance. When they start making out during almost every single one of their fake dates, however, both Trevor and Basil start to realize things have gone too far. Trevor doesn't know how long he can keep up the facade for and Basil simply can't believe there are real feelings because Basil doesn't like men. He definitely doesn't like Trevor like that. It's all just pretend. Please Note: This book contains Adult Language & Steamy Adult Activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only. Novel, approx. 70,000 words in length.
