Beholden · A Curvy Girl Romance

I’d love to be his real bride, but I’ll settle for his fake date.

After he saved my life back in high school, I told him I was beholden to him. As if a guy like him would want anything to do with ME--a chubby girl from the wrong side of the tracks! That was ten years ago but I’ve been in love with him ever since. Too bad he’s never said a word to me...

Until the day he shows up on my front porch and asks me to be his fake date to his sister’s wedding. He told his sick granny he had a girlfriend and now he needs to keep up the charade. Why’d he pick me? I guess he’s desperate and he knows I have to say yes.

I know he’s just using me. He made that clear. But I made him a promise.

Besides, I’ve waited ten years for Holden Clements to look my way.

So what if he’s only using me? I’ll use him right back.
