"Sooner or later, you'll fall for me, too." Theodore bursts into laughter. "I don't know where your confidence is coming from." Jacob chuckles and says, "I just know." And then it catches Theodore off guard when Jacob adds, "We should be making out right now." Theodore swallows and looks him in the eye. "We should." "And I should be undressing you at this very moment," he continues, "We could stay up all night with our hands on each other and just... forget everything." ****** Meet Jacob and Theodore, the polar opposites within a tight-knit circle of the most esteemed members of society. Jacob, reserved and hard to read, isn't exactly Theodore's biggest fan-unlike everyone else, who's head over heels for the golden boy.

Almost was never enough. The most is where it all lies; the second is no different from losers. If you want to be chosen, be the best among the options-a sweet rule to every test, a bitter reality Eiah was raised in. She gives everything a hard try, even though she can't grasp it all just right. Maybe she was chasing the wrong things. Maybe she needs to work harder. Maybe she's really... almost there. Whatever it is, she's determined to prove her father she's worthy of her name-but heck, not to the point of marriage! That's why, when he demanded that she get engaged while still in college, she had to 'call a friend', Chase, an accounting junior who has kissed girls everywhere. They had to level up their call sign. From bes to babe, will fake couple rings work? Or was it, again, just another almost? Almost the right move; apparently not the best. Maybe they should've just sat with their friendship bracelets rather than become almost too-almost what they aren't meant to be, almost everything they could no longer be.

✨{Featured on AmbassadorNg} 🔥 CHRISTMAS is around the corner but it means different things to two different people. When stakes are increased, and pressure is mounted, it pushes two people to do what they won't usually do- for family. They both get involved in One-time Love, an agency that rents out girls for Christmas and family gatherings. Their policy is simple: You can only hire (date) them once and you shouldn't get involved in their personal life. Dylan O'Connor, a charming and free soul, had no problems with the rules. He wasn't interested in anything serious and hasn't been for the past decade. So when the time comes to go home for Christmas, and he stumbles upon this agency, he willingly accepts. Throwing in fun, late-night brushes, an exceptional family, snacks, and near-death experiences, what happens when Dylan rents the 'perfect' girl and ends up getting more interested than he should be? ✨#1 in old money ✨#1 in refreshing ✨#1 in Christian fiction.
