About this ebook

She has zero time for a relationship. A fake one will have to do—in New York Times bestselling author Marina Adair’s new romance that brings the humor and the heart...

Evie Granger’s life is one crisis away from a complete meltdown.

Between single-parenting a sixteen-going-on-forty daughter, managing a mom living her best life way out loud, caring for an ailing father, and keeping the family’s struggling coffee shop afloat, Evie hasn’t looked after herself in far too long.

So naturally her best friend chooses this moment to post a video of Evie describing the ideal man...and sends it stratospherically viral.

Now Evie’s an overnight social media sensation and every eligible (and otherwise) guy in a five-state radius is turning up with his “I’m the one” credentials. But Evie can’t bring herself to let any Prince Charming into a life that’s barely holding together. A life she doesn’t even recognize as hers.

So she strikes a bargain with her sexy—if equally overwhelmed—neighbor to convince America she’s taken. But can a faux fairytale start to feel real...or is it just as doomed from the start?

Marina Adair’s clever, uproarious story captures the utter chaos and irrepressible joy of balancing kids, parents, love, and finding a spare minute for yourself—while the whole world watches every disastrous minute.

Ratings and reviews

I adore this author's voice! Every time I start a new Marina Adair book, I'm instantly reminded how much I love her writing style. She packs so much descriptive, insightful detail into every sentence, with words that just flow so easily that reading along is like floating down the river on an inflatable raft. Every book is simply a joy to read, and this one is no exception. Evie and Jonah have history - as friends - she's the one who introduced him to his late wife years before. Now, he's dealing with single parenting as a recent widower, whereas Evie has always been a single mom to her teen, whose ne'er-do-well father left before she was even born. It's this friendship that comes to the rescue when Evie finds herself the target of a little too much attention when she tries to drum up some internet notoriety to save her family's coffee shop. As fake relationships never stay fake for long, this romance has all the steam and angst and heartwarming intimacy that a romance reader could want. Add in a delightful array of friends and family and this book will just draw you in and hold you captive from the first page to the last. It's full of heart, with several romances brewing in the background and characters that you'll hold in your heart for a very long time. Everything this author writes is gold, and this latest nugget is a real gem. Highly recommended. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
