To save the wedding of the year, she has to fake the one affair no one will ignore.

Imogen Doyle is the woman rich people call when scandal threatens to ruin them. Sharp, controlled, and very well paid, she arrives at a private island wedding expecting to contain a leak, silence the whispers, and keep the bride out of the headlines.

She does not expect Adrian Kane.

The island’s head of security is cold, watchful, and impossible to intimidate. He doesn’t trust PR, doesn’t like losing control, and definitely doesn’t like Imogen. But when the leaks turn personal and the press start hunting for sex, betrayal, and humiliation, they agree on one reckless solution:

Give the world a scandal it can’t resist.

A few looks. A few touches. One fake affair to pull attention away from the bride and groom.

It should have been simple.

It should have been calculated.

It should never have felt real.

Because every stolen glance starts to burn. Every public performance becomes more dangerous in private. And on an island built for luxury, secrecy, and temptation, the line between strategy and surrender is getting thinner by the hour.

Now Imogen must survive a week of lies, lust, and ruthless scrutiny without losing the one thing she never risks: control.

The Alibi is a smart, sexy contemporary romance packed with private-island glamour, elite scandal, scorching chemistry, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a fake relationship that turns explosively real.
