✍🏻 One of the best ways to end 2021: the cover for Karla Sorensen’s The Plan. Who’s ready for this grump/sunshine story? This GIRL! ✍🏻

Have you ever fake dated your bodyguard?

I don’t recommend it. 

 

Especially if he’s anything like Erik Wilder: former football player, world class know-it-all and unapologetic grump. 

 

To be clear, I didn’t want a bodyguard (hence the fake dating idea). Most days, I can’t figure out why he wants the job either. We drive each other insane, probably because we’re as opposite as two people can be. 

 

He’s suspicious, never talks about his past and has the comfort skills of a cactus. I’m a happily ever after kinda girl who knows exactly what she wants out of life. 

 

Erik’s words might say that the lines have to stay firm between us, but those dark eyes of his? They tell another story when he looks at me. 

 

He’s just as stubborn as I am, but when our fake dating plan starts to feel a lot more real, it’s only a matter of time before his professional walls come crashing down.  

 

I just have to hope my heart doesn’t get buried in the rubble.

Well, let’s see … I’m a wife and a mother. If the things that I write bring a smile to someone’s face, then I’ve done my job.
