But Mallory wants to stay in Starlight Hill permanently, the one place she feels safe, even if the only men interested in her now are SLs (stripper lovers.)

He’s been invited for a stay in Starlight Hill and some much needed R&R. Liam suspects this is just the Turlocks’ intrusive way of fixing him up. They’ve got their choices lined up for him and he’s not interested in any of them. When Liam meets Mallory while hiding behind a rack of banana hammocks at the Tatas and More lingerie shop (don’t ask) he has an idea. He and Mallory will pretend to date so that 1. Mallory can repair her good time girl image; and 2. Liam can get his family off his back. So for now, or at least until Liam goes back home to Colorado, he and Mallory are a thing to anyone who asks, especially anyone with the last name of Turlock. But fake has never been so real… **ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED AS 'FOREVER MY GIRL' IN 2016, PART OF THE ST. HELENE VINEYARD KINDLE WORLD. INCLUDES A NEVER BEFORE PUBLISHED EPILOGUE.**
