Cherishing His Fake Fiancée by Alexa McLean

Fake It Until You Make It…..I Guess It’s Easier Said than Done.

Gayle Nash was my one-way ticket to a career.
I can’t believe I had never thought of it sooner.
With him by my side, I’d have all the advantages to help me succeed as a sports journalist.
And maybe some people won’t like that I slept my way to the top.
But let’s get one thing straight here: I only slept with the major league baseball player after he gave me the ring.
Was it amazing? Yes.

Did I wish it meant something more than it did? Also yes.
Because while this engagement of ours might be fake, my feeling for him weren’t.
But how was I supposed to tell him as much when there was another girl in the picture?
And that girl wasn’t me.
So, what am I supposed to do when I want to transform a fake engagement into a real one?
And would Gayle ever see me as more than the girl next door?
