Finding the Neutral Zone

Cooper Henry chased me almost my entire life . . . until he didn't.

As kids we would have fake weddings, our parents absolutely certain it would be the real thing one day. But when I moved away I never heard a word from him again . . . until he was drafted by the Baltimore Cobras. But my excitement was short lived as the man pretends to never have known me, which is only made worse by our friend group growing closer and closer.

My heart hurts every time I see him, and I'm dead set on getting over him. Thankfully, my friends have just the solution . . .

Amara Flores is standing in front of me in a white dress.

I once vowed that I would marry her for real one day, but the second she left me behind, she took my heart with her. I'm set on getting over her, and when I'm approached with the opportunity to star in the latest dating show, I happily take the opportunity. Fake marry a stranger and make the country fall in love with me? I'll take it.

The only issue? I'm two minutes from saying yes at the alter under the heat of studio lights to someone who is definitely NOT a stranger.

And it looks like we’re both pissed about it.
