Behind the Story: Charlie

Charlie Hill is the instigator in my story, Mistletoe Make-believe. You see, his family has been after him for a while now to find someone to date and marry so his daughter Hailey can have a mom.

Since he's spending Christmas with his family, he dreads hearing the advice once again, so he decides to find a pretend girlfriend. If only he hadn't waited until the last minute! Seriously. The first Sunday they're all together on St. Simons Island, Georgia, he's stuck guessing which women in the church building are possibly single--and picking one to ask the biggest favor he's ever requested.

It's all his family's fault he's asking someone to lie with him. And he's making the request in the church building, no less.
Charlie is a good guy. A good dad. A businessman from the Atlanta area. And he loves his family.

He just doesn't want to spend another Christmas hearing them egging him on to find someone to date.

What do you think? Could you fall in love with such a book boyfriend? Pretend or otherwise?
