The Rule of the Scoop 🍨❤️✨
If Robin Arellano's elbow crosses the electrical tape line down the middle of our ice cream counter one more time, I might actually throw a whole bucket of hot fudge at his face.
We work at the exact same shop, but we are literal mortal enemies. Every single shift is a war to see who can scoop faster, clean the machines quicker, and make the most tips. He's stubborn, arrogant, and way too attractive for his own good-and my best friend Griffin 💅✨ spends half his time sitting at the counter throwing shade at him just to help me win.
I thought we'd be fighting over sprinkle jars forever.
Until Mama Wendy drops a bomb on Robin: either he finds a real partner, or she's setting him up on the most embarrassing blind dates imaginable.
Desperate to get his mom off his back, Robin does the absolute unthinkable. He walks right across the tape line, swallows his pride, and begs me to be his fake partner.
The deal? I get all his tips for a month, and he gets to survive family dinner without his brother Ernesto teasing him to death. It was supposed to be easy money. But pretending to love your work rival is a lot harder when the bickering starts to feel a little too real...
