"On a Deadline"
Two strangers embark on a fake relationship in a seaside Welsh town. By Jonnah Dayuta.
Hannah says:
A few winters ago, I was dreading Valentine’s Day. I had recently gone through a big breakup and assumed the day would be a miserable slog. To give myself something to look forward to, I planned a Galentine’s Day party instead: think pink champagne, glitter everywhere, pop divas on repeat, and gals galore. Since then, it’s become an annual tradition (except for 2021) and I can’t wait for this year’s. There can be so much focus on relationships this week, and if it’s getting to you, I hope you remember the importance of celebrating all kinds of love — whether that’s with your partner, your friends and family, or with a stack of romance novels.
Speaking of which! Jonnah Dayuta has a story that’s bound to get your heart fluttering. This piece plays with the fake dating trope and some spicy sexual tension. Enjoy!
