Thirsty Thursdays by J. L. Brannick
The agreement should have been safe and simple. He needs a fake girlfriend, and I need a quiet place to live.

But life is rarely simple. And living with the massive, scarred French Canadian hockey player who has a world-class filthy mouth? It’s anything but safe.


When my father turns his rage on my little girl, I need to escape. But I’m broke, beaten down, and out of options. So when my best friend asks me to be Titus’s live-in fake girlfriend, I seize the crazy offer with both hands.

Titus, a.k.a. the Spartan, must convince a judge that he can provide a stable family environment for his toddler. We get to stay in his sunny Palm Springs home and pretend to be his family. It’s the perfect arrangement–so long as no one ends up in a Canadian jail.

As my quiet daughter starts falling in love with the growly man, I become the unexpected owner of an adult online toy store. And he insists on helping me “product test” the merchandise.

But getting involved with Titus could jeopardize our safe haven, and I can sense my psychotic father circling. So is running the only way to protect the people I love?
