Pretty Desperate

Jillian They say when one door closes another one opens, right? When the door closed on my marriage, I was fortunate to follow a new dream. One that led me to opening my own bakery in downtown Pine Village. It hasn't been easy, especially in the offseason, but I make it work. I'm content. Happy. Then Kameron Markley showed up on my doorstep, begging me to be his fake girlfriend. It seems like such a simple plan, especially when we're both getting something out of it. Unfortunately, it doesn't take long before lines are blurred and crossed, and suddenly, the relationship doesn't feel so fake after all.

Suddenly, I'm desperate. That's when I come up with the wild idea to find a fake girlfriend.

Suddenly, the lie we're telling does feel like it's so right. I want it to be real.
