I Said I Was Engaged

By Tessa Hart

She said she was engaged.
It was easier than explaining the truth.

When a casual lie slips out to stop the questions, it seems harmless enough-until it becomes something she has to live with. What starts as a moment of convenience quietly reshapes her relationship, her work life, and the expectations everyone has of her.

As the truth surfaces, she's forced to confront what she actually wants-not the version of love that looks right from the outside, but the one that fits when no one is watching.

I Said I Was Engaged is a contemporary, emotionally grounded novella about choosing honesty over performance, commitment without timelines, and the quiet courage it takes to build a life deliberately.

Perfect for readers who love thoughtful, character-driven stories about modern relationships, communication, and finding steadiness without certainty.
