Just Faking for the Weekend : A Fake Fiancé Billionaire Romance (Costa Rica Escape #2)

One weekend. One fake engagement. Zero chance of falling in love...

Rory Lane has always been the quirky, out-of-step black sheep of the family, and her Aunt Cassandra never lets her—or her mom—forget it.

So when she gets a final warning at work, an eviction notice, and an invitation to her perfect cousin’s destination wedding all in the same afternoon, one thing is

She cannot show up in Costa Rica as the single, unemployed disaster who’s moving back in with her parents.

Enter Jude Hart—her best friend’s twin brother and longtime arch-nemesis. He’s arrogant, infuriating, wildly successful… and he owes her.

They make a deal. He’ll be her fake fiancé for one tropical wedding weekend. She’ll give him something he’s wanted from her for years.

Cut One shared villa. One enormous engagement ring. One extremely opinionated cockatiel. No strings. No feelings. No one gets hurt.

But Jude turns out to be very convincing as a fiancé. Her family adores him. He’s thoughtful, patient, unexpectedly kind—and the way he looks at her doesn’t feel pretend at all.

And soon the lines begin to blur.

Neither one of them can deny it. This feels more real than they ever expected. Both of them are quietly falling, but too afraid to say it— so used to distance, it would be easier to walk away, than to admit what they truly want.

Because it’s just for the weekend, right?

But just when they begin to whisper about forever, a secret betrayal knocks Rory off her feet and shatters the fragile trust between them.

Can Rory find it in her heart to forgive him—and believe she’s worthy of being chosen for real? Will Jude finally fight for the one woman he’s always wanted but never thought he deserved?

Or will one beautiful fake weekend be all they ever get?

Just Faking for the Weekend is a sweet, warm love story filled with laughs, the kind of love that refuses to stay quiet, and the courage to choose it when it’s the harder choice to make. Perfect for readers who crave heartfelt emotion, slow-burn tension, and an ending that feels like coming home.
