Savannah’s sister is marrying the man who broke her heart. To survive the wedding, she brings her best friend as her fake fiancé. But as pretend kisses start to feel real, Savannah must choose—keep the act going, or risk everything for the man who’s been by her side all along.
The silence thickened, my stomach churning as I gazed out the window, the headlights illuminating rows of parked cars. “She’s missing. And if anything happens to her…” he trailed off, his jaw tightening with anxiety. “I’ll never forgive myself. Or Alyssa.” I swallowed hard, feeling the weight of his words. “You really love her, don’t…
Just then, my phone buzzed in my pocket. It was Roman. “Hey,” I answered quickly, stepping away from the PDA show unfolding before me. “Please tell me you’ve got something.” “I handled Emily’s father,” Roman’s voice came through, steady and composed. “He won’t be a problem anymore.” My heart skipped a beat. “Wait-what do you…
I wanted to scream. I wanted to pull over and confront Chloe, to reveal the truth-that I had loved Dean first. That perhaps, deep down, I still did. But I remained silent. Even if I spoke up, what would it change? Nothing, absolutely nothing. Chloe’s engagement ring caught my eye as she gripped Dean’s hand,…
A bitter laugh escaped my lips. “You mean like a train wreck in slow motion? I can’t even stand upright without wobbling like a newborn deer.” “No,” he replied, his grip on my jaw gentle yet firm. “I mean like a goddamn wildfire. Beautiful. Devastating. Alive.

He scrolled through endless rows of pictures, a collection of moments captured in time, some of them unguarded and unaware. “Okay, fine,” I relented, raising my hand in surrender. With a smug grin, he tucked his phone away. “Say always used to say she was the black sheep. Those kinds of people don’t end up…
Her smile widened, not sweet but dangerous-like she reveled in the chaos she could unleash. “Promise?” she asked, her voice a sultry whisper. I chuckled softly, the sound laced with sincerity. “Promise, love.” Together, we descended the stairs, my hand resting firmly on her lower back. Every eye in the room turned our way, drawn…
She smiled, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “You’re just mad he’s forcing you to socialize.” “No, I socialize for a living. It’s part of my job. I’m just mad he thinks this is a competition,” I replied, frustration lacing my words. “You’re all worked up, Roman. Relax,” she said, reaching over to rub my arm,…
Chloe’s fingers curled around her glass, the cool surface almost slipping from her grip as she tightened her hold. “Please, do go on,” Dean slurred slightly, lifting his drink in a clumsy toast before gulping it down.
