Dangle the Ring

I thought it was a good idea to pretend to be engaged to my sisterâs best friend.
Before you judge, hear me out. I needed the money. Okay, that sounded really bad, but Harper needed something too, a job.
We were both benefiting from the fake engagement. The only problem was as we tried to keep it a secret from our friends and family, the more word got out.
Thatâs the problem with being a famous hockey player and living in a small town. Word spreads fast. I guess I didnât think that one through.
I didnât think a lot of things through. But I was desperate for the money I could get by pretending to be Harperâs fiancÊ. My ex-wife took everything I had and trying to raise my son in a tiny one-bedroom apartment wasnât easy.
I may not be proud of the lie I told, but Iâd do anything for my little boy. Even pretend to not be in love with my fake-fiancÊ.
