Girlfriend on Retainer: A Steamy Sapphic Billionaire Fake Dating Romance

Sloane Mercer built a multibillion-dollar hotel empire on ice-cold control and flawless execution.

She doesn’t do vulnerability, and she certainly doesn’t do relationships. But when a ruthless corporate leak paints her as a heartless monster, her board demands a softer, more "human" public image to save her legacy. The solution is hire a professional companion to play the part.

Adria Solís is warm, fiercely independent, and exceptionally good at her job.

As a high-end image consultant building her own agency, Adria knows exactly how to navigate the complex world of Manhattan's elite. What starts as a strictly transactional, heavily negotiated contract—staged public kisses, fake smiles, and corporate events—soon blurs into something entirely unscripted. Behind closed penthouse doors, the ice queen is desperate to surrender, and Adria is the only woman who can make her melt.

As their fake relationship turns scorchingly real, Sloane must decide if she’s willing to risk the empire she’s bled for, or if she's going to let the only woman she's ever loved walk away.
