Don't Call Me Sweetheart

It’s not fake dating. It’s practice dating.
Teen mom. Army widow. Small town sweetheart.

I’ve worn those labels in Hart’s Ridge for my whole life, and I’m tired of it. So I let myself break free of their rules, for just one night, with the hottest man I’ve ever seen. But our one-night stand is a disaster. Fortunately for me, I’ll never see him again.

Except it turns out he’s the principal of my daughter’s school.

Max Darlington is every bit as broken as I am. I don’t know how to let go. He doesn’t know how to hold on. But maybe we can teach each other.
