The Uncomplicated Café by Rachael Bloome
A fake fiancée. A not-so-pretend kiss. And a lifelong friendship on the line….

CeCe Dupree is perfectly content running her quirky café in the charming coastal town of Blessings Bay. Between her cat named Spock, her love for baking Jamaican Toto cakes, and a steady diet of sci-fi and romantic comedies, her life is simple—just the way she likes it.

Until her longtime best friend—and completely off-limits crush—movie star Jayce Hunt, shows up with a wild

Pretend to be his fiancée for a few weeks to help him dodge a PR disaster.

But what starts as a simple favor quickly spirals into something much more complicated. When Jayce blurts out CeCe’s name to get his co-star out of a jam, he never imagines the white lie will take on a life of its own… or that pretending to be in love will feel so real.

As the line between friendship and something deeper begins to blur, Jayce realizes he’s risking more than just his career—he might lose CeCe forever.

Meanwhile, Abigail Preston’s dream wedding teeters on the edge when a surprise visitor threatens to unravel the family she’s fought so hard to build with her fiancé, Logan, and their foster son, Max.

In Blessings Bay, love gets complicated, friendships are tested, and fake fiancées might just lead to happily ever after.

Perfect for fans of heartfelt, feel-good romance with page-turning twists, The Uncomplicated Café is a warm, uplifting story of unexpected love, found family, and second chances from USA Today bestselling author Rachael Bloome.

While each story can be read as a standalone, due to the recurring characters and closely connected storylines, they're much more fun when read in order.
