Pretending I Love Lucy
by Julie Christianson
The first rule of being a winner? Never lose your heart …
People think it’s easy being Felix Dodd III. And sure the legacy and inheritance aren’t exactly terrible. But the name comes with so many strings, my hands feel permanently tied.

Someone who’s looking for quick cash and a quicker getaway. Someone like Lucy Devlin…
