The boy who once knew all my secrets is now a man who makes my heart race in ways I can't ignore.
And when my ex-husband resurfaces, threatening to take my daughter away, Túlio steps in with an outrageous solution:"Marry me."A fake marriage will make me look like the stable parent the courts want to see. It's just a temporary arrangement, a legal strategy. Nothing more. After all, we've only ever been friends. But as we move in together, share a home, and navigate this charade, the lines start to blur.
The way he looks at me isn't friendly anymore. The way he holds my daughter, protects her like his own-it makes me want things I promised myself I'd never want again. This was supposed to be just a proposal pact. A simple agreement. No feelings. No risks. No falling in love. But the heart doesn't follow the rules. and neither does Túlio.
