Excerpt
Copyright 2021 Allie York
I have to look like a freaking fish, opening and closing my mouth over and over. Brown hair, hazel eyes, that face that not even time can make me forget. āHoly shit! Sebbie?ā Talk about a blast from the past. I look the man in front of me up and down. The last time I saw Sebastian Keller, he was eighteen, gangly, and had acne, and I was madly in love with him. The Seb in front of me is definitely not a kid anymore. Heās at least six-foot with a chiseled jaw for days and is rocking the gray sweatpants like a porn star. Thereās definitely dick print there. And Iām not unimpressed. Oh, my god, stop looking at his junk.
āStevie. Wow.ā He breaks our mutual silence, and my eyes snap up from perusing his body. Face. Yes. Focus on his face. Hazel eyes, a little stubble, a swoop of dark hair on his forehead. Yup. Still Seb standing there. I take stock of the features one more time just to be sure and come to the same conclusion. Sebastian is my delivery, and time was good to this man. He grew up real nice. Heās checking me out too, but like a gentleman: heās staring at my face, those eyes I know so well searching my face for something. I think back to right before I got out of my car and try to figure out what he sees right now. My eye makeup was on point at the beginning of the night, but Iāve worked a whole shift at the coffee shop and delivered ten meals since then. My hair is⦠I probably shouldnāt think about it. The ponytail it started in is probably lopsided and messy, but nothing I can do about it now.
āI take it this is your dinner since youāre in front of the only penthouse I see?ā I offer the food and hold it between us. After way too long, he takes it very slowly like he may spook me if he moves too fast. The way my heart is hammering tells me this might be true.
āYeah. Thanks.ā His hand wraps around the bag, and I scope it for a ring. Nothing. Interesting. We keep staring at each other, and my hand falls uselessly to my side. āDo you want to come in?ā As soon as he says it, Sebās brows furrow like heās surprised himself.
āI, uh, no. I donāt want to bother you.ā I shake my head and take a step back. I am not emotionally stable enough for this, and Iām not wearing lipstick.
āRight. Youāre working. Sorry.ā Seb winces, or tries to smile, I canāt tell.
āNo, youāre it. For now.ā Good job, Stevie, now you donāt have an excuse to leave.
āThen come in for a second. Iām starving and need to sit down after that run. I canāt believe youāre here.ā Then I get a real smile and know for sure that this sexy man in front of me is the same Seb from my childhood. That smile does the same thing now that it did fifteen years ago. My face gets hot, and I chew my bottom lip.
āYeah. Okay. Just for a second.ā I nod, trying to figure out why I just agreed to this. I smell like fried food, dogs, and coffee. Not a good combo, and Iām sure I look as tired as I am, but my stupid feet donāt get the memo, and they do the opposite of what my rational brain is saying. Seb tips his head for me to follow him in.

Review
Seb is a successful businessman who has focused all his efforts towards his career rather than his personal life. He has forged a relationship with Grant, whose foster family live in the same building, so when he learns that they are no longer able to care for him Seb is determined to step up and be the person he needs even if it includes a pretend girlfriend.
Stevie is going through a difficult time both personally and professionally. A chance encounter with the boy she crushed on years earlier leads to an arrangement that will benefit both of them. As they spend time together it is like the years they spent apart never happened but will they be able to turn their fake relationship into forever?
This is a heartwarming story about two people who come together to help Grant and find the family they all needed along the way.
