I’m not the girl guys date. I’m not the girlfriend.

I’m the friend with benefits. Or the friend who was briefly something more.

I’m the girl who is pretty enough to sleep with on a weeknight, but not take out on weekends. I’m the girl who they’ll cuddle with on the couch while watching a movie, but who they don’t take out to dinner.

I’m the one they call last minute when plans fall through, but who isn’t pretty enough to make plans with in advance. I’m the placeholder between relationships.

Maybe it's my turn to use a placeholder. Paige is a sportswriter for the Bay Area Express and is in Vegas covering a fight for Bay Area native, Jace Play, who happens to be her brother.

She's tired of her brother and his teammates interfering with her life. She and his childhood best friend, who she hasn't seen in almost 8 years, decide to play a fake marriage prank.

Only things don't go exactly as they planned. Sometimes what happens in Vegas doesn't stay there.

Tropes: brother's best friend, best friend's little sister, fake marriage, vacation flingContent Note: on page references to alcohol consumption, discussions about birth control, references to a parent's passing due to terminal illness, brief separation of characters, and discussion of military service & injury.
