After spending every day making sure his clients experience nothing but romantic magic, the Granshire Hotel's wedding organizer just wants to go home, binge-watch crime dramas, and eat pizza in his underwear. Unfortunately, no one believes him, and he's stuck with lectures about dying alone. Then inspiration strikes. He needs the people in his life to want him to stay single as much as he does. He needs a bad boyfriend. There's only one man for the job. Flynn Delaney is used to people on the island of Ceremony thinking the worst of him. But he isn't sure he wants the dubious honor of worst boyfriend on the entire island. On the other hand, if he plays along, he gets to hang out with the gorgeous Nathan and piss off the owners of the Granshire Hotel. It's a win-win. There's only one problem—Flynn's actually quite a good boyfriend, and now Nathan's wondering if getting off the sofa occasionally is really the worst thing in the world.

  King Sebastian 
  I’m the first omega king in a land previously ruled by alphas, and I’ve had the audacity to remain unmarried. Of course, all kinds of outrageous tales surround my palace. People say I’m a sorcerer constantly in heat, the orgies in my bathhouses never end, and every so often, a young alpha expires in my arms from exhaustion. According to one legend, I choose three men to knot me every night because I can’t sleep empty. Another story says that I keep virgin omegas at the palace and organize games where the best soldiers get to deflower the boys as a reward while I look on. As if I would ever allow an innocent omega to be used in such a heinous manner! 
  The truth is much simpler; I love pleasure, and relish in erotic beauty, so I surround myself with it. My omega companions and my loyal guards love me, and our arrangement is a far happier one than most marriages can aspire to be. But now I need to find the right man to father my heir.

  Yet the more we touch, the stronger the bond between us grows. Can I, a commoner with dirty hands and even dirtier blood, love and collar a king? Because I don’t give a damn about his power or his treasures. I want him.
