Christine Briscoe never expected one wedding dance to end with Gavin Fortunado asking her to pretend to be his girlfriend. The arrangement looks simple, until sparks start flying and neither of them wants to stop the act.
Fortunes Of Texas: The Lost Fortunes books in chronological order
Series background & context
The Lost Fortunes strand folds romance into the larger idea that the Fortune family tree is never quite as settled as it looks. Michelle Major's linked story adds a playful setup to that world, with a wedding, a pretend relationship, and two people who start out thinking they can keep things light.
In the connected book, Christine Briscoe finds herself drawn into Gavin Fortunado's orbit after a family wedding sparks a fake-girlfriend arrangement. That gives the story an airy, flirtatious entry point, but the deeper pull comes from reputation, family expectation, and the risk of looking foolish when the stakes turn real.
This page is best for readers who like the Fortune setting but want a slightly breezier route into it. The family backdrop is still there, and the larger continuity world still matters, but the immediate pleasure is watching two people try to manage a convenient arrangement that refuses to stay convenient for long.
