“Seeking a fake ex-husband.”
My words fall into the air, sounding just as ridiculous as I
imagined they would. I sigh and lift a brow at Kerissa, my best
friend and troublemaker extraordinaire, sitting across the table from me. The
mischief in her eyes complements the smug grin on her face, and I know,
beyond the shadow of a doubt, that I need to rethink this attempt at crisis
management.
“I can’t do this,” I say, slamming my notebook closed.
“And why not?”
I level my gaze with hers. “You’ve come up with a lot of bizarre things in
your life, but this one takes the cake.”
“Takes the … wedding cake?”
She laughs at her joke—one that I don’t find especially funny under the
circumstances.
How do I get myself into these situations?
I grab a couple of Cajun fries—the whole reason we came to Shade
House for happy hour—and pop them in my mouth. Tables around us begin
to fill with patrons ordering drinks and appetizers. I side-eye my root beer
float and consider breaking down and ordering an amaretto sour. The only
problem is that my problem-solving abilities go down with each drink. At this
point, I need all the help I can get.
“We could use this as an excuse to throw a divorce party,” Kerissa says.
“Kerissa—”
“Will you just think about it? Hear me out.” Her eyes twinkle. “We’ll go
to Savannah and get a room at Picante.”
I sigh happily. “I do love that hotel.”
“Right? We can hit up a Georgia Hornets game, get a massage, and shop.
Maybe find a couple of unassuming bachelors to ravage for the weekend.”
“Well, I did see that Lincoln Landry is the general manager of the
Hornets now.” I wiggle my eyebrows. “I’m thinking about buying a Hornets
shirt with Landry on the back.”
She laughs. “They don’t have shirts with the GM’s name on them.”
“Oh, no. They do.” I point at her. “You can get them online. I’ve already
looked.”
“How did you know all this, Miss I Hate Sports?”
“Because Lincoln Landry transcends baseball. He went viral last season
for nothing other than a smirk and the way he licked his lips.” I shrug. “Who
am I not to follow a fan account dedicated to giving me delicious videos
every morning? LandryLover0808 works hard at her craft, and I support
content creators, thank you very much.”
Her laughter grows louder. “Sometimes I wonder if I even know you.”
I laugh too.
“There’s this little place called Judy’s down the street from Picante,”
Kerissa says. “We can grab breakfast there.”
“Yes, and maybe we can …” I stop as reality knocks me sideways. “Wait
a minute. I’m not actually getting a divorce, remember?”
Kerissa frowns.
