What do you do when your father is trying to steal your inheritance? Enter into a marriage of convenience, of course!
You're probably wondering how a free-spirited girl like myself ended up in this situation. Well, it's simple. I needed money after my father cut me off. So I decided to claim what is rightfully mine. There's just a catch...
First things first - I have to find a husband.
Thankfully, my long-time 'friend', Derek, is more than happy to play the role of my fake fiancé. Before I knew it, though, he was relocating cities, moving into my house, and planning our very real wedding. He exceeds my exceptions twofold for a guy who never wanted to settle down himself.
After that? Produce an heir.
How do I convince my friend to have a baby with me, you ask? Well, that was a lot easier than you think. He kind of, sort of, already knocked me up, long before our fake engagement had even begun...
That leaves just one final task - convince everyone we're in love.
Sure, we got on well enough, but would they believe years of friendship and intimacy transformed into something more? Surprisingly, they do... Hell, even I believe it. That right there becomes the problem.
Falling in love with my baby daddy isn't an option. Once the inheritance arrives, the gig is up. That was our arrangement...unless he doesn't want to end things, either.
