Used book – The Story of Us, Susan Wiggs, Juliette Bouchery

What should you do when you're invited to an alumni ball and don't have a fiancé? Run for the hills, according to Twyla! And when, as a penniless hairdresser, you have to go with a wealthy and charming bachelor who will play the role of your fiancé? Run even faster, because the danger is twofold. But if your dearest friends have pooled their money to offer you, at a golden price, this bachelor and a dream weekend with him to get to know him better before going to the ball... it's impossible to dare disappoint them. Both trapped and infinitely touched, Twyla therefore agrees to "act as if it were real" with Rob, a man as brilliant as he is attentive, who came from Denver especially to play the game. However, what should have been a harmless comedy will awaken in the young woman overwhelming emotions, buried for too long...
