They say everything is fair in love and war-but what if love itself turns into war, and war feels a lot like falling in love?
And what if the battlefield is your heart?
Or in simpler words: what if you wake up one morning to find yourself accidentally (and very legally) married to your best friend of forever... and suddenly, nothing feels the same again?
This is not your regular romance. It's messy, chaotic, hilarious, and the kind of emotional.
✨ Meet your new obsession:
Hayden Harrington
- CEO of Harrington Enterprises
- The only heir of old money and new power
- Certified unserious brat with the humor of a crackhead
- A man who's never taken life seriously... until now.
Evelyn Solace
- Sharp-tongued, razor-smart lawyer
- The elegant heiress of Maison Solace, a luxury empire
- Perfection wrapped in heels, with a secret soft side
- The one person Hayden was never supposed to cross the line with...at least not in 'marryme' sense.
Two best friends. One accidental marriage.
A lifetime of friendship hanging by a thread.
Because sometimes... what happens in Vegas refuses to stay in Vegas.
And this time, it was an unforgiven mistake.
--------
I swear I would've poured in way more-more words, more emotions, more chaos, more love, more hate-literally a whole storm of a story. But yeah, my hands were tied with that word limit, and honestly? I only even started writing it because of the contest.
But damn, I already love these characters so much. It was way to much fun writing them.
So don't hate on it too much if it didn't hit the mark you expected, okay? I promise, if I do get the time, I'll add a few more chapters.
And of course...the drunk drama, the drunken confession and a lot which was on my mind but never made it to the pages.

Awkward
- a featured story on wattpad @sport - a featured story on wattpad @generalfiction School has an odd way of making you hate it yet love the people you meet. I hate both. I've been the new boy at my school for nearly five months. Since my family's life of poverty was flipped on its head I've seen my entire world open up; it's like I was living in a cave. This time last year, I was 'too poor to have a Valentine'. This time this year, I just don't have the guts. Seriously, "Valentine's Day is the root of human anxiety." ~ Albert Einstein. (Don't look it up. I'm telling you what 'the government' doesn't want you to know.) But school has an odd way of giving you the perfect friends, a perfect love life and perfectly supporting your dreams to be a pro football player like your older brother. That, or it crushes you. It just crushes you. Your dreams? Crushed. Your friends? Meh. Your love life? Nonexistent (but as soon as it exists, CRUSHED). But we don't know what will happen for sure, right? I'm Roman Turner, but you can call me "the cool man". Gosh, I know I'll cringe at this later. ----------- - a featured story on wattpad @sport - a romance winner at the multi awards - a story told through two points of view • Romance/Sport/Slice of Life | Roman • Prose/Mystery/Psychological | Danielle • BOOK ONE: LIVING. • (EST.) 3390 words/part. • Cover artist - Sage Hieran.

Don't run from me (Book 3)
I leaned back against the wall "It's been so long hasn't it?" "Yes, it has... I think the last time I saw you was high school graduation." "Exactly, and I waved at you and was making my way to you but you had disappeared." "Oh, I..." she looked around as if looking for an escape making me smile. She was so adorable. "Hey, it's okay" I chuckled "Don't worry about it. I just always wondered why you kept running from me throughout high school. It was hard keeping up with you, to be honest." Her smile faded and she just shrugged before leaning down to pick up her things "Well, it was nice seeing you again Mr. Walton." "Mr. Walton? Where did that come from?" "It seems we'll be working together now, it's only fair I call you Mr. Walton. It wouldn't be appropriate otherwise." I frowned standing up "Are you running from me again?" After a harsh breakup, Mason Walton's life changed upside down. Instead of being the considerate boyfriend he always was, he became the biggest playboy of all time.

Then came Billie. At a time when everything around me felt like it was falling apart, she appeared like a light I didn't know I needed.
