Harper's POV My phone rang at exactly 11:03 p.m. I was half-asleep, halfway through an episode of a show I couldn’t remember the name of, and fully committed to doing absolutely nothing for the rest of the night. So when I saw Riley’s name flash across my screen, I almost let it go to voicemail. Almost. Because something about Riley calling this late? That felt... ominous. I answered on the third ring. “If this is about another blind date, I swear—” “Harper. It’s a disaster. A full-on, Chanel-burning, trust-fund-cancelling disaster.” I sat up instantly. “What happened? Did your dad find out? Did Ethan—” “Ethan’s not Ethan.” Silence. I blinked. “Come again?” She sounded like she was hyperventilating. “The man I went on a date with? The one I thought was Ethan? That wasn’t Ethan.”
