A lottery ticket + donuts = love in this steamy new fake dating romance from beloved author Denise Williams.
Sybil Sweet has always been lucky, but lately she can’t catch a break. After years of bouncing from job to job in search of something that feels right and from man to man in search of something special, Sybil is worried that she’s the directionless, floundering daughter her family thinks she is. All she really wants now is a little financial stability and carb comfort. Lucky for her, she’s got just enough in the bank to buy a lottery ticket, and the late-night donut store is open.
Kieran Anderson put his dreams of becoming a doctor on hold to take over running his family’s bakery, and after fighting a losing battle to save the place, he’s exhausted, broke, and no closer to getting back to school. But when a whirlwind of a woman sweeps in late one night, flirty energy gives way to more…until she runs out the next morning, leaving behind her winning lottery ticket.
Lucky for Kieran, his attempt to return the ticket looks like a grand romantic gesture and goes viral, sending sales through the roof. In an effort to keep the store afloat and to convince Sybil’s family she can make good relationship choices, they agree to fake a relationship for three months. Even with hundreds of millions of dollars, finding each other might end up being the sweetest bit of luck for both of them.

      Williams (Technically Yours) charms in this steamy interracial rom-com. Recently jobless and ping-ponging between friends’ apartments, Sybil Sweet decides to try her luck at the lottery, buying herself a ticket and a donut with her last few dollars. Donut shop proprietor Kevin Anderson deferred his medical school dreams to help his ailing grandfather’s failing business. Sparks fly when these two meet, leading to a red-hot one-night stand. In the morning, Sybil jots a farewell note on the back of the lottery ticket before taking off—only for Kieran to later learn that it’s the winning ticket. When he goes on a local news show to find Sybil and return the ticket, viewers take it for a grand romantic gesture and the segment goes viral, drawing much-needed business to the donut shop. So the reunited Sybil and Kieran make a pact: they’ll keep the publicity going by fake-dating for three months, hoping to use the relationship to save the shop and convince Sybil’s concerned family that she has at least one area of her life under control. The plot already has a lot going on, so the fake dating angle feels a bit contrived, but the story is fun enough and the relationship sparky enough to hold interest. Williams’s fans will not be disappointed.
