What if the perfect match is a perfect surprise?
Honor Holland has just been unceremoniously rejected by her lifelong crush. And nowâa mere three weeks laterâMr. Perfect is engaged to her best friend. But resilient, reliable Honor is going to pick herself up, dust herself off and get back out there ⌠or she would if dating in Manningsport, New York, population 715, wasnât easier said than done.
Charming, handsome British professor Tom Barlow just wants to do right by his unofficial stepson, Charlie, but his visa is about to expire. Now Tom must either get a green card or leave the Statesâand leave Charlie behind.
In a moment of impulsiveness, Honor agrees to help Tom with a marriage of convenienceâand make her ex jealous in the process. But juggling a fake fiancĂŠ, hiding out from her former best friend and managing her job at the family vineyard isnât easy. And as sparks start to fly between Honor and Tom, they might discover that their pretend relationship is far too perfect to be anything but true love âŚ
"[A] refreshing riff on the classic marriage-of-convenience plot ⌠a delightfully unorthodox, captivating winner."âLibrary Journal
