That was, until Mr. Fine Dining himself, Alex Ram?ez, rolled into town with a permanent scowl. Even worse, he decided to park his snooty five-star restaurant across from my cozy dog daycare. He was tall, dark, and about as warm as a frozen entr馥. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAfter one too many unpleasant interactions, I was determined to stay out of his way and to keep him out of mine. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut fate had a quirky sense of humor. When Alex inherited his great-aunt's cranky canine, he had no choice but to come to me, the local dog whisperer, for help. As for me? I needed a fake boyfriend to ward off my ex-husband, who was determined to win me back. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSo, we struck a deal: I'd turn his dog into the town's best-behaved pet, and in return, he'd be my arm candy for a few family events and social gatherings. Simple, uncomplicated, and absolutely not romantic-at least, that was what we told ourselves. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs we played house, I couldn't help but notice that underneath Alex's prickly shell was a dash of charm that wasn't listed in the ingredients. Our pretend dates started to feel a little too real. And our feigned kisses? They were getting laughably close to crossing the line. Suddenly, our interactions felt less like a food fight and more like foreplay. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith every playful touch and lingering glance, I couldn't help but wonder: Was this fake relationship with Alex secretly penning its own authentic ending? Or was I risking it all for someone who was nothing more than make-believe?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brittainy Cherry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8864113525\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798864113523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.82d","brand":"Brittainy Cherry","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44522325704959,"sku":"9798864113523","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c253f548-96ec-44c7-b3d0-7cd1950c8894.jpg?v=1700156695","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-problem-with-dating-brittainy-cherry-9798864113523","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
