Amira

There’s nothing fun about my family. They’re full of old habits and overbearing views, and if I can’t make my parents proud, I’ll have to fake it instead.

Noah was the lifeline I needed to escape my father’s scrutiny. My unexpected saviour in the form of my best friend’s cousin.

But I’ve just spun our web of lies a little too thick, and now I need more of his help than either of us planned.


Noah Nothing in my life has come easily. So when I inherited a winery from a grandmother I never met, I was determined to see it succeed. Now that it’s thriving, I still thank luck, more than skill.

It was that same luck that found me at a wedding pretending to be Amira’s boyfriend. Now, I can’t get her out of my head.

I started by playing along, but now I’m playing for keeps.

Because of Me is a spicy fake dating romance about taking chances, and fighting for what, and who, you want. A standalone story, it is the third novel in Bookstagrammer Devon May’s Because of Love series.
