Faking It with the Ex-SEAL

War didn’t break me.

But faking an engagement with Ms. Sunshine might.

When my dog, Turbo, collapsed, I wasn’t ready for the woman who met my fury like she’d trained for combat and held my stare like she wanted to tame me.

Dr. Harper Lane: steady hands, calm voice, eyes that read every scar I keep buried.

She saved my partner and I don’t leave debts unpaid.

Helping her failing shelter should’ve been simple. A mission.

Until one almost-kiss went viral and the whole damn town decided we’re engaged.

Now we’re faking it. For the cameras. For her cause.

For the lie that gets hotter every time she gets close.

Because Harper looks at me like she wants the parts of me I swore were dead.

Her touch lights me up like a live wire.

I swore I’d never let anyone close again and she’s slipping past every defense I’ve got.

Trust got my brothers killed.

Letting her in could take me down just as fast.

And when a ghost from my past threatens her, I’ll burn the world down before I let him take her from me.
