When it comes to The Vers, the queer podcast I host with my best friends, I'm The Romantic. The one who's looking for love in all the wrong places. If there's a jerk close by, I'll find him. I'm beginning to think my Mr. Right doesn't exist.

It's definitely not Elliott Delgado Weaver, the shameless flirt who keeps asking me out. We're not supposed to run into each other in Vegas or get drunk together. We definitely aren't supposed to wake up married...only, we do.

Before we can figure out what to do, Elliott's family finds out. He doesn't want to let them down by telling them it was a drunken mistake. My parents had the perfect marriage until my mom passed, and since I'd hate for my father to discover what I did, Elliott and I decide to pretend we're in love and stay married for six months. Better to amicably divorce later than own up to our screwup, right?

All I've ever wanted is my happily ever after, and now I live with a serial hookup artist who never planned on settling down.

But then, why is Elliott so good to me? He takes me on dates, makes me laugh, and touches me like I'm someone to cherish. He's shown me I'm a sucker for praise, and lucky for me, he loves giving it to me. Our marriage is playing tricks on my heart because suddenly I'm wishing my happy ending can be with the husband who doesn't think love is for him.

The Romantic is a wake-up-married, opposites-attract romance with tons of praise, an unforgettable massage, found family, and sweet moments on the pier.
