The grumpy silver fox in my bakery with a little girl hiding behind his leg?
My fake fiancé needs my vote.
The grumpy silver fox in my bakery with a little girl hiding behind his leg?
Billionaire. Ex-soccer legend. Best friend who left fifteen years ago.
Now he's back to build a stadium in my small town.
I'm on the committee that says yes or no.
But the way he taught my son to dribble until sunset…
The way his daughter slipped her hand into mine like I was already hers…
I agreed to a fake engagement. Six weeks. Rules. No touching.
Then he pinned me to his kitchen counter and shattered every one.
The town gossip found proof it started as a lie.
Forty-eight hours before she blows it all up.
His stadium. My reputation. Everything.
And this stubborn man thinks he can fix it by falling on the grenade alone.
He doesn't know I don't let the people I love walk away.
Not anymore.
