From Little Stack

Julie James's sparky contemporary romances about FBI agents and Chicago district attorneys are absolute catnip to rom-com fans. Local heiress Jordan Rhodes has been cajoled by the FBI into attending the charity fundraiser of a famous restaurateur, who also happens to launder money for the mob. If she complies, her brother will be released from prison. But it also means being paired up with undercover agent Nick McCall. He's her pretend boyfriend for the date, but when Nick's investigation is compromised, he and Jordan have no choice but to pretend they're a couple for far longer.

Publisher Description

An FBI agent and an heiress have to get up close and personal on an undercover assignment in this thrilling romance from the author of The Thing About Love.

As the daughter of a billionaire and the owner of the city’s top wine store, Jordan Rhodes is invited to the most exclusive parties in Chicago. But there’s only one party the FBI wants to crash: the charity fund-raiser of a famous restaurateur, who also happens to launder money for the mob. In exchange for her brother’s release from prison, Jordan is going to be there—with a date supplied by the Bureau.

As the top undercover agent in Chicago, Nick McCall has one rule: never get personal. This “date” with Jordan Rhodes is merely an assignment—one they’re both determined to pull off even if they can’t be together for five minutes before the sarcasm and sparks begin to fly. But when Nick’s investigation is compromised, he and Jordan have no choice but to pretend they’re a couple, and what starts out as a simple assignment begins to feel a lot like something more...
