I didn't mean to lie to my boss before ever meeting him. But when a hot stranger pulled over to "help" while I was stranded on the side of the road, I panicked and said I had pepper spray (nope), a taser (also nope), and that my boyfriend would be arriving any second.
My "boyfriend" being... my boss.
Who, surprise, turned out to be the hot stranger.
Now I'm fake-dating Drew Kingsley—my very off-limits boss—to survive my sister's wedding. You know, the one where she's marrying my ex, and my entire family is acting like I should just get over it.
I was already half in love with Ellie before she told me I was her imaginary boyfriend.
She's brilliant, hilarious, and so beautiful it hurts to look directly at her—but I hired her to be my PA, not my soulmate. I definitely didn't plan on fake-dating her in front of her wildly toxic family, move her into my house, or constantly imagine what it would be like to kiss her for real.
But here we are.
And the more time I spend with her, the more I know I don't want this to end. Not the charade. Not the late-night talks. Not the way she looks at me like I'm someone worth loving.
This small-town romcom features fake dating, found family, a plus-size heroine with a heart of gold, a cinnamon-roll CEO in denial, and one chaos-loving Glamma determined to make their true love happen—even if she has to get them to fake it first.
