Dear Santa

Dear Santa,

Find me a fake boyfriend I can take home for the holidays....

There are certain things I never thought I'd do. Hiring an escort to pose as my boyfriend sits at the top of that list. But the idea of sitting alone at Mom's table for the fifth year in a row after my fiancé cheated on me has me feeling desperate. It started as a drunken joke when I let my best friend convince me to fill out an application for a male escort. Now, I'm on my way to see my family with the man I paid for.

He's nothing like the polished professional I expected—complete with tattoos, a sinful muscular physique, and a blunt attitude. Yet, there's something he's hiding under his gruff exterior, and while I'm supposed to be getting to know my fake boyfriend, I'd rather learn about who this mysterious man truly is.

What started as a simple business transaction isn't so simple anymore. We can barely keep our hands off each other—even when no one's watching. The lines we drew in our contract are blurring, and it doesn't feel like we're pretending. I can't keep up with our lie for much longer.

But how can I trust my heart with someone who fakes love for a living?

Contains mature themes.

Loved the narrators and I slowed it down for the spice which delivered.

Really cute holiday read with a fake date that becomes her best support with a terrible mom. Jake absolutely goes full support mode and does all the things. They mend each other and it's heartwarming for Christmas.

Quick Listen

This was a quick and emotionally healing listen. I do wish there was a bit more on his end but overall I enjoyed the story and the whole premise of their meeting. Narration was done well.

oh yeeeeesssssss!!

from start to finish this is absolutely everything. her family, him and he rainbow attitude was everything!!! I absolutely love this. they're perfect for one another, a cute dog or a bad goat would be the only thing to make this story anymore hilarious 😂🥰🥰
