COMPLETED ✔️(Editing Soon) "Marry me." I nearly spill my latte on the nicest dress I own. "Are you out of your mind?! We just met... plus I don't even like your face!" "It doesn't have to be real." I set my latte down and look at him. "No woman wants a fake marriage Mr. Mardell. Be less of a dumbass and find yourself a nice girl who'll kiss your ass even when you're ghosts." "Look, don't flatter yourself" he goes leaning back in his seat. "You just happen to fit the description I gave the press and my family. And I don't like your face either." I copy his move and lean back against my seat. "I'd rather slam my tongue in a car door, sir." The words hit him. "Good day... and good luck finding a brainless girl to marry you." I grab my purse and head towards the door. "$20,000 a week" he blurts out. I halt and whirl around. "What?" "I'll give you $20,000 every week for a month..." He walks out from behind his desk. "... if you agree to do this with me." $20,000 every week for an 'I do'? Which happens to be fake too? $80,000 in a month to play dress up for one of the youngest and richest CEO's in the world? "So what do you say?" His silky voice swims through my thoughts. "You wanna get hitched for some money? You know your family needs it." He just had to play the poor family card. "So do we have a deal? Or I should go on and keep making you lose your jobs before you even start?" He had a smirk on his face. God, I hate him! But that money could help us a whole lot. I glare at him and extend a hand towards him. "Deal." ✄--------------------------------------------------------- No one ever realizes the implications of messing around with the famous 'Always and Forever' promise until they're cornered with no escape... except the one through their own hell.

Kenna Lane has a reputation she can't escape. Walker James has one he can't afford to lose. When a bar fight forces the Athletic Director's daughter and the program's star quarterback into a fake relationship, the internet eats it up. It was supposed to be damage control. A few appearances. A few photos. Nothing real. But the longer they pretend, the harder it becomes to remember where the act ends. Because the one thing more dangerous than a bad reputation... is falling for the one person who believed it wasn't true.

It all went downhill the moment she kissed him in the penalty box. Because apparently, that's not something people do casually - especially not in front of a crowd, through glass, while he's supposed to be serving time for fighting. They were supposed to fake date for PR. Stand close. Look convincing. Don't catch feelings. Simple. Except it stopped being simple somewhere between viral photos, very real-looking kisses, and a friend group that has fully committed to planning their wedding like it's already happening. Now they're stuck in something that was never supposed to feel real - but somehow does. At this point, the only fake thing left... is the original plan.

Olivia Bennett knows the rules of sports journalism - never get too close to the players you cover. As a reporter for the San Jose Sharks, she's built her career on professionalism. Too bad the internet is convinced she's secretly dating rookie star Macklin Celebrini. For two years, their interviews, inside jokes, and viral moments have had fans rooting for them. In reality, they're just friends. At least... that's what they keep telling everyone.

At twenty-six, Clara Whitmore has built a life she can control. Her days are precise, her work as a dentist meticulous, and her heart... carefully protected. After everything she's faced, she's learned to rely only on herself. Luke Matthews, also twenty-six, is everything the world admires: talented, charming, and seemingly untouchable. A professional ice hockey star with a smile that could light up a city, he carries a weight that no one sees-a vulnerability behind the fame and the effortless confidence. Two years ago, their lives intersected for a fleeting, unforgettable night-one filled with laughter, warmth, and a spark neither of them could explain. But life pulled them apart, leaving memories that linger like shadows. Now, fate brings them together again. A chance meeting in Clara's clinic sets off a slow, teasing, and irresistible pull. Friendships are tested, walls are challenged, and hearts are pushed toward a possibility neither thought they could risk. Fracture Line is a slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance about love that sneaks up when you least expect it, the fragility of trust, and the invisible cracks in our lives that sometimes lead us to the people who can make us whole.

Your clothes are already in the closet, as well as your toiletries in the bathroom " he says motioning towards the closet and the bathroom. Wait, what does he mean our bedroom? "Wait, what do you mean our bedroom?" I voice my worries with wide eyes and furrowed eyebrows accompanied by a scrunched nose. "There's only one bedroom in this house. Where else would you sleep, cream-cheeks?" "Umm, I thought th-that I'd be having my own bedroom ". "Nope, we're married now, don't couples share beds?" He asks audaciously making my temper rise and blood fume with anger and agitation. He knows full on that we're not like any couple. By now, I really don't care. I just want to sleep and I don't mind sleeping on the same bed as him as long as he keeps his hands to himself. "Fine, but you keep your hands to yourself !"
