It’s Not Like It’s a Secret by Grace J. Croy

She’s alone and pregnant. He’s been burned by relationships in the past. Pretending to date might be just what they both need.

The betrayal of her ex-boyfriend is the only blip in Avery Morgan’s otherwise perfectly planned-out life. That is until she finds out she’s pregnant with his baby. With her future in shambles, the only person she knows she can rely on is her coworker and best friend, Theo.

Theo Decker never thought he would take a punch defending a friend, but when Avery’s parents find out she’s pregnant and assume he’s the father, he becomes personally acquainted with her dad’s right hook. He knows what it is to be abandoned and he won’t do that to Avery, no matter the cost.

Soon their whole office believes they’re dating, and if they can’t beat them, they may as well join them. But with a baby on the way, how far are they willing to let their assumed relationship go? Family isn’t the only thing they might lose, but maybe what they fear the most is losing each other.

*It’s Not Like It’s a Secret is a sweet, friends to lovers, fake relationship to office romance, with a steady dose of humor.
