Faking It (and falling in love) by Sally Brooks
When Philippa comes out at 46 she has no idea what to expect. Juggling a high-powered job as a family lawyer, lone-parenting a 10-year-old daughter and navigating her new life push her to the limit. She doesn't have time to fall in love, but when she meets carefree graphic designer Alex at a professional networking event, people think they are a couple. For both women this is a convenient way to present themselves to the world, so they keep up the pretence.

To Philippa's surprise, her feelings for Alex start to grow, but the graphic designer doesn’t want to settle down with anyone... so their fake relationship status can’t become real.

But when Alex comes to Philippa with a problem that only she can help with, things get complicated. Can Philippa resist her growing feelings towards Alex while trying to help her gain access to her child? Or should Philippa steer clear of Alex and her hedonistic lifestyle for the benefit of her own daughter?

Don’t miss this romantic comedy with heart-felt moments about navigating coming out later in life, the perils of lone-parenting and falling in love when you least expect it, from the author of Swiping Right (and other disasters) and Don’t Fall in Love (and how to break the rules).
