Familiar Stranger
Caitlin Moss

One divorce.
The perfect fake date.
Anna McKinley has always been the black sheep of her family, which makes preparing to go to her younger sister’s wedding alone after breaking off her engagement the year prior an even bigger humiliation. But after a couple of glasses of wine with a handsome stranger, they concocted a plan for him to help her save face by attending the wedding as her date. Complete with a fake name and an irresistible first date story, she and “Isaac” embark on an innocent con that turns into a magical night.
Now, twelve years after that swoony night, Anna still wound up the average suburban statistic: married with two kids and living in a cookie-cutter home with a husband asking her for a divorce. If she’s honest with herself, the divorce has been a long time coming. She just doesn't want to share the news with friends and family when they arrive at her niece’s wedding the next day. In hopes of keeping the peace, they say nothing, pretending everything is fine.
As each wedding night progresses, Anna realizes how easy it is to fall in love… especially when she's faking it.
