Broken Dreams

What could possibly go wrong fake dating the gorgeous single dad in a small town? The answer, you fall for him.

It started out perfect. Grady Whitlock needed a plus one for his business meetings, and I needed a date for a wedding. We had a plan. It was a good one. Until it wasn't.

I was not supposed to have feelings for him. I was not going to let my heart race when his soulful blue eyes stared into mine. No way should I have noticed his smile or the dimple on his right cheek or his strong arms when he held me close. I especially wasn't going to melt when I saw him play with my daughter.

Most of all I was not going to sleep with him. Nope. None of that was supposed to happen, but it does. Now I find myself dreaming of him every night. Wishing we were really a couple because the way he kisses me doesn't feel as if it's pretend. But we've both watched our dreams shatter, and I can't handle another broken heart.
