It’s a wedding—who’s counting?
It’s my twin sister’s live, televised circus…I mean wedding, and my BFF, West Quinn and I make a pact: I help him become next season’s reality dating TV star, and he helps me land the rich, powerful, and connected suit my father’s hand-selected.
Easy, right?
Actually, it is. West and I make a great team, as always—he’a a brilliant techie with an off-the-wall sense of humor. We sneak away for one tiny stress-relieving tryst…that turns into two…that turns into a craze. Hello, mind-blowing!

Ugh—I don’t want this pact to end, and it’s not just about the help. West accepts me. Is always there for me. Encourages me to follow my passion for baking.
Oh, God. I think I’m in love with the wrong guy! It’s too late, not to mention that West and I can never happen.
Sweet mother—now what?

Excerpt
Copyright 2024 Terra Weiss
I head past the bathrooms and up the stairs, finding Eva on the top deck of the yacht, the ocean breeze playing with her dark curls. She’s staring out at the vast water, her arms wrapped around herself like she’s holding in the world’s weight.
“Hey,” I say softly, coming to stand beside her.
“Hey.” She doesn’t look at me. “You didn’t have to come.”
“I know.” My mind flips through the Rolodex of Eva’s favorite topics, and when I land on one, my eyes move skyward when I say, “You might know this, but it takes millions of years for a star’s light to reach our eyes. Gazing at the night sky is like looking really far back in time.”
“I didn’t know that, actually.” Her gaze drifts up. “So, what we’re admiring is the ghosts of stars?”
“Exactly.”
“The universe’s time capsule,” we say in unison. Then we both call out, “Jinx,” and then, “Double jinx,” at the same time. When that happens, which it does often, Eva gets to punch my shoulder, not too hard, which she does.
I pretend it hurts more than it does, grabbing my shoulder and stepping back, and she busts up. I don’t know why, but this always makes her laugh.
Then her face turns serious as she looks back up at the sky. “Makes you wonder, doesn’t it?” She sighs. “Okay, I’ve got one. The sun is the closest star to Earth, but do you know how long it’d take for us to travel there by plane?”
“Long enough to need some serious in-flight entertainment.”
She smiles, a twinkle appearing in her eyes. “Definitely.”
We stare above, and everything quiets except the lap of ocean waves and the hum of the yacht’s motor. I know the answer, but that’s no fun. So I finally say, “Five years?”
“Close. Try nineteen years.”
I make my eyes go wide. “Nineteen? Seriously?”
She playfully smacks my shoulder. “You knew the answer.”
“Caught me.” I smile adoringly at her. I should know I can’t pull stuff like that with her.
I catch a glimpse of a dark spot in the ocean that looks like a portal to another world. “Makes you appreciate those same-day Amazon deliveries, huh?”
“Totally.” She bumps into my side playfully. “But imagine the frequent flier miles.”
We stand, catching our breath, and her eyes move over the water.
