    Summary

    But as she stared at the diamond, an ache settled deep into her stomach. It wasn't all jealousy. It was a sense of displacement. For years, Mel had quietly convinced herself that she was doing fine, that her solitary and carefully curated life was what success looked like for her.

    Summary

    “It’s easier if I stay out of the way. I’m good at it.”

    Frank’s body shifted as his head tilted and face softened into something more attentive that made Mel’s breath hitch as she noticed his long fingers tapped once, twice against the counter.

    “You shouldn’t have to be good at that, Mel.”

    Mel looked away as her throat suddenly felt very tight. Her mom always thanked her for being the easy one, the one she didn’t have to worry about. And to hear Frank just lay it out so simply when he’d known her for less than a day—like it’s a fact, like it’s data he had analyzed and understood immediately—not a lot of people looked at her invisibility and saw it as a burden, most people didn’t think twice about it.

    But he did.

    Summary

    "But I don't want this to end, Mel," Frank admitted softly.

    Mel's words faded as she stared at him, at the warmth and tenderness in his eyes as he shifted closer to her. "Like… you don't want the wedding to end?" she asked as he drew near. He shook his head slowly.

    "No, Mel. This. Us. I want… us to continue. Exactly as we are now."

    In which Abby is remarrying a mere year after the Langdons divorce. Mel convinces Frank that they should attend the wedding as a fake couple, so as to show his ex-wife that he has fully moved on, but she does not anticipate the turn their evening takes when the two friends follow their roles a little easier than expected...
