The Boyfriend Proposal

Theo

I'm just me-plain, boring Theo. Everyone's friend but no one's boyfriend. Dating apps don't work for me, and the one time I try to change my image is a total disaster.

All I want is someone to come home to and hold hands with. A boyfriend who'll love me. It doesn't help that I have this silly crush on Jaxon Polaris, our sexy, gorgeous, district attorney. He's a flirt who's never without a date. No matter how nice he is to me, I know the truth. A man like Jaxon would never be interested in someone like me.

Jaxon

I love being the district attorney of Appleton Falls, but I definitely have dreams of sitting on the bench. When the leader of the party approaches me, suggesting I run for a judgeship, I'm thrilled...until he tells me my image as a party boy might hurt me with small-town voters. I can't deny it-I've had more than my share of lovers, and I've never hidden my desire to remain single. His suggestion? Find a nice guy and make him my boyfriend.

Problem is, I don't know any nice guys...except shy, quiet Theo Sweeny.

Reluctantly, Theo agrees to my boyfriend proposal, and the man proceeds to challenge me at every turn. Shy? He's stubborn and feisty. But his kisses are so sweet, and I can't stop thinking about him. Being with Theo means I'll have to tell him my truth-a secret that could prevent me from achieving my dreams. But the more I get to know Theo, the more I come to realize: Win or lose the election, what I'm searching for might be right here by my side.
