The worst day of my life happened when Brandon died. We had our entire future mapped out. Careers, marriage, kids-in that order. Then the universe threw a curveball and ended it all. As I come to terms with everything, I learn that I'm carrying his baby. Now I'm living with his roommate, the guy who's made my life a living hell the past two years. Hunter's now the one to hold me up when all I want to do is fall. Knowing my religious parents will never accept the pregnancy out of wedlock, Hunter offers to be my fake husband. While I think he's gone crazy, it's the only plan that'll keep them in my life. So I do whatever it takes to make our relationship believable-kissing, touching, even letting him hold me when we sleep. The lines are so blurred neither of us want to admit we're no longer pretending. The guilt of what we're doing eats me alive as I struggle to deal with my emotions. I push him away, but he pulls me closer, showing me how he's always felt. Just as I begin to follow my heart, I learn Hunter's been keeping secrets. And I'm left to make the hardest decision of my life...
