Christmas in Virgin Cove was supposed to be simple—one last lonely holiday before I figured out what came next. But then I found Kaveh Norouzi bleeding in the snow, and a split-second decision changed everything.

One white lie. That’s all it took.

Now, the entire Norouzi family thinks I’m engaged to Kaveh—including Ralph, the man I’ve secretly loved since we were kids. The one who got away. The one who never looked back.

Except now, he’s looking at me like I belong here. Like I belong to him.

But Kaveh wakes up with no memory of what really happened, and suddenly, I’m not just playing along—I’m trapped in a holiday fairytale I never meant to start.

A mansion filled with Christmas lights. A family who welcomes me like I’m one of their own. And Ralph... the only man I’ve ever wanted, now completely off-limits.

I should leave before this all explodes. Before Kaveh remembers. Before Ralph and I do something we can’t take back.

But if I walk away, I’ll lose the only real Christmas I’ve ever had… and the only man I’ve ever loved.
