The Single Dad Agreed to Fake an Engagement—Then There Was Only One Bed

When a single dad agreed to a fake engagement to help the woman he worked for, he thought it would be a simple arrangement with clear rules. No real feelings. No crossing boundaries. And absolutely no complications. But pretending to be engaged quickly became harder than either of them expected. They had to convince friends, family, and coworkers that their relationship was real. Every smile, every touch, and every affectionate moment felt dangerously convincing. Then, during an unexpected trip, they arrived at their hotel and discovered a problem neither of them had planned for. There was only one bed. What started as a fake engagement suddenly felt far too real. And as they spent the night trying to maintain their boundaries, a secret neither of them was prepared to admit began to surface. Because sometimes, the hardest part of pretending to love someone… is realizing you actually do.
