<p>Finding a good roommate through a classified ad isn't as easy as it sounds.</p><p><br></p><p>I was starting to lose hope.</p><p><br></p><p>Until a knock at my door came and God answered my prayers.</p><p><br></p><p>Except...uh...<em>wrong prayer, God</em>.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I'd definitely requested the big guy find me a drop-dead gorgeous man on more than one occasion...just not as my roommate.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Declan Tate talked me into interviewing him anyway.</p><p><br></p><p>While he was amusing and charismatic, I wouldn't have been comfortable living with a man, so I regretfully declined.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Then cupcakes showed up at my door-freshly baked by Declan and just as sinfully delicious as he was.</p><p><br></p><p>You could say he was persistent.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I eventually folded.&nbsp;It wasn't like I had another viable candidate anyway.</p><p><br></p><p>Plus, I was interested in someone else. And Declan was into another woman. So it wasn't like anything would happen romantically.</p><p><br></p><p>After he moved in, the two of us became the best of friends.&nbsp;We even started to give each other advice on getting our crushes to notice us.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Eventually, Declan concocted an idea: we should pretend to be a couple to make our love interests jealous.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I was hesitant, but went along with it anyway. To my utter shock, his crazy plan worked.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Now I was dating the supposed man of my dreams, and my best friend had the woman of his.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>But there was one problem.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I couldn't stop thinking about Declan.</p><p><br></p><p>Those feelings we were trying to fake?</p><p><br></p><p>Yeah...I wasn't pretending anymore.&nbsp;</p>
