Tittle Accidental Love, Intentional Lies
Title: Accidental Love, Intentional Lies
Author: Amanda Ahamefule Ugosinachi
Zara Cole has always been meticulous—every detail in her life carefully planned, every move calculated. But one small accident at the annual corporate gala turns her perfectly ordered world upside down. A spilled glass of champagne lands squarely on the pristine suit of Adrian Blackwood, the city’s most enigmatic and intimidating CEO.
Adrian doesn’t forgive mistakes easily, and Zara soon finds herself trapped in a precarious game of appearances. To save her job and reputation, she agrees to a temporary arrangement: a fake relationship with the man whose icy glare makes her pulse race and her heart betray her.
As they navigate the delicate balance of their staged romance, sparks fly, tensions rise, and boundaries blur. Zara discovers there’s more to Adrian than his cold, calculating exterior—but every step toward trust risks exposing the lies that brought them together. Meanwhile, office gossip, jealous rivals, and Adrian’s stubborn pride threaten to turn their fake world into a very real heartbreak.
“Accidental Love, Intentional Lies” is a story of passion, deception, and the messy, thrilling way hearts collide. Will Zara and Adrian’s intentional lies lead to true love, or will the accident that brought them together destroy them forever?Structure of the 5,000-word Synopsis
