After the Storm: A Willow Creek Romance

By Nicholas Higgerson

Fake fianc s. Small-town gossip. A storm that could ruin everything-or finally clear the skies.

Maya Delgado has always played it safe. The dependable daughter, the careful teacher, the one who never gives Willow Creek's gossip mill anything to feast on. But when her sister's wedding looms, she makes one reckless choice: pretending to be engaged to Ethan Walsh-the town's most infamous bad boy.

Ethan has spent years carrying a reputation he can't outrun. To everyone else, he's trouble in a leather jacket. To Maya, he's supposed to be temporary. A favor. A shield. But the longer they fake forever, the more every stolen glance and lingering touch feels dangerously real.

With family pressure mounting and the whole town watching, Maya and Ethan will have to decide if their "pretend" can survive the storm. Because some storms don't destroy.

They make way for forever.
