We’re Just Neighbors
Page 17
When it came time for the fireworks, all of us sat down on blankets to watch. Julianna, Jake, Caley, and Jude were on theirs, and Richard, Addison, and I were on ours. Suddenly Richard and Addison stood up, walked in front of us, and they each got down on one knee.
I looked over at Julianna and Jake with my eyes bugged out, but they just smiled and turned back to Richard and Addison.
Before the fireworks started, right in front of the full moon, Richard pulled a box out of his pocket and held it out to me. After opening it, Addison looked at me and said, “Annie, will you marry us?”
I jumped up and hugged both of them, nodding and choking out the word ‘yes’ through my tears. The fireworks started, and we stood there, all of us hugging, with red, white, and blue lighting up the sky. Everything had turned out better than I ever imagined. I finally got my happily ever after just like Julianna, but this was only the beginning of the Truman’s family story.

He’s so cocky to think that he can get away with anything.
Scratching my car.
Being so damn hot and hard to resist.
…and being a fake husband that’s impossible to not fall in love with.
Gavin is too much to handle.
Who damages someone’s car and then offers to buy them a new one?
That’s exactly what he did to me.
The man has some deep pockets and an ego the size of a mountain.
But he’s also the solution to my biggest problem.
I need to access to my mother’s estate that she left for me.
The only condition?
I need to be married.
And I have two months to put on that veil and play wife.
My first thought to do this with is the same man who just bought me a sports car.
Gavin has a good heart.
But will his heart belong in this fake marriage?
