My Surprising Valentine (Be My Fake Valentine #7)

As a single, thirty-five-year-old woman, nothing sends my anxiety soaring quite like the thought of attending my cousin’s Valentine’s Day wedding solo. I can already hear the barrage of questions from well-meaning Why don’t you have a man in your life? When will it be your turn? It’s enough to make a person contemplate taking drastic measures—like faking a boyfriend.

Enter Max Bennett, my older brother’s best friend, and the man I’ve been secretly in love with for years. He’s charming, infuriatingly handsome, and has a reputation as a heartbreaker. So when he unexpectedly offers to be my date, I’m torn between relief and skepticism. What does Max, the ultimate bachelor, have to gain from playing pretend?

Still, I agree to the ruse, hoping it’ll keep the nosy questions at bay. But what starts as a simple plan to survive this wedding quickly spirals out of control when one tiny, inconvenient detail comes to it turns out that Max has feelings for me, too. When the boundaries between real and fake become blurred beyond measure, can I can trust what we’re feeling is genuine or am I setting myself up for heartbreak at the hands of a man who’s vowed to never settle down?
