About this ebook

One fake engagement. One small-town rumor mill. One friendship that’s about to cross the line.

Finding the ring was an accident. Putting it on instead of immediately returning it to the rightful owner…well, that was a choice. 

One I instantly regretted when my grandmother saw it and excitedly assumed it was mine.

I wanted to correct her. Started to, in fact.

Until I was interrupted by my childhood best friend’s proposal.

But what Brady proposed wasn’t marriage; it was a temporary, mutually beneficial arrangement that tested the boundaries of our friendship. 

Because it wasn’t long before my grandmother started planning the wedding…and the hot chemistry I had with Brady got even hotter. 

Now, I need a way out of this mess that doesn’t end with losing the best friend I’ve ever had. Entirely doable, right?

Should be. Assuming I can stop falling in love—and into bed—with my fake fiancé. 

A steamy small-town romance featuring a fake engagement, lifelong friendship tested by undeniable chemistry, and two best friends risking everything for a love that was never meant to be pretend.

✨ What You’ll Find Inside:

• Childhood best friends to lovers

• Fake engagement that feels dangerously real

• Small-town gossip and meddling family

• “We’re just pretending”… until we’re not

• Wedding planning chaos and sizzling chemistry

• Slow-burn tension that turns steamy

• Guaranteed happily ever after

This book can be enjoyed as a standalone but is part of The Kingston Brothers, a collection of steamy small-town romances.

Brady has been in love with Hazel since their childhood and she has been his best friend and confidant. Trying on an engagement ring, her grandmother sees it and assumes that she is engaged, so Brady announces that he is her fiancé. When they decide to move in together, as she assists with his podcasts, will this bring them closer or will his brother’s struggling relationship put a strain on their union? I received an ARC at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (paytonpuppy)
