Hired Heartstrings

He broke my heart in high school.
Now he’s about to hire me to fix his.

Back then, Ethan Carter was the golden boy—rich, popular, untouchable. And me? Just the quiet girl who sat two rows behind him, secretly doodling his name in the margins of my notebook. He never noticed. Not when he had a beautiful girlfriend on his arm. Not when I finally stopped hoping he would.

Fast forward eight years, and my phone buzzes at dawn with the most ridiculous offer of my life: pretend to be Ethan’s girlfriend at his ex’s wedding. He mistakes me for someone else—someone he meant to pay for the job. But when I say yes… it isn’t for the money. It’s because my old crush still makes my heart race.

The rules are simple: keep it fake, smile for the cameras, don’t fall for each other.
But the way he looks at me now?
The way he touches me like I’m not the shy girl from high school anymore?

This time, I might be the one breaking his heart.
