Fake Relationship


$FREE on 8/28/2023 – Loving the Ladies’ Man by Kristin Canary

Connor is the last guy in the world I should fall for.

He’s the resident office flirt. I’m the quirky Pride & Prejudice¬–loving editor who uses big words and dresses like the world’s non-sexiest librarian.

We have nothing in common.

And we’re competitors for the same job.

Game on, right? May the best person win and all that? Fine by me. I’m happy to hold him at arms’ length forever.

And considering I’m practically the only woman in the office he’s never flirted with, he’s obviously happy to do the same.

But when we’re stuck overnight in our office building thanks to an earthquake-induced landslide (don’t worry, we’re totally fine), things between us start to change.

I begin to realize that Connor isn’t actually the jerk I thought he was—the kind who leads women on, just like my ex.

And when he offers to attend my ex’s wedding as my fake boyfriend, things get even more interesting. Especially when he gives me that much-too-chaste kiss …

But I can’t fall for him. That would be repeating the same mistake, just with a different guy.

Tell that to my dumb heart, though—the one that seems to think Connor Bryant is my Mr. Darcy.

Loving the Ladies’ Man is Book 1 in the California Dreamin’ sweet romantic comedy series, where a group of roommates and friends find their perfect matches and support one another like crazy. This single-POV novel is for fans of flirtatious banter, office romances between competitors, charming “bad boys” who are secret cinnamon rolls, quirky bookish heroines, Pride & Prejudice references, fake relationships, and the beloved forced proximity trope. It's filled with all the sizzling romantic tension and swoons possible without on-page intimacy.

$0.99 on 10/10/2021 – Coming Home to Silver Leaf Falls by Meg Easton

She’s back in town, but he’s about to leave.
Will their fake relationship have real repercussions?

Everything in Liz Jenkins’s life is temporary, including the job at the struggling summer camp from her childhood. But she’ll turn it around like every company she’s hired to fix. In fact, her own disastrous love life seems to be the only thing she can’t turn around. She’ll just leave love to everyone else. It’s scary and uncontrollable—and Liz likes to be in control. If only the people of Silver Leaf Falls would stop trying to set her up with every available man in town.

Noah Knight is the beloved principal at Silver Leaf Falls Elementary. He loves living in his hometown, but something’s missing. He’s hoping a new job in another state will help fill the void. Other than leaving right after reconnecting with his friend Liz, the biggest downside is the PTA making it their mission to find him a wife before he moves away.

Liz just needs to focus on work without being set up and Noah needs the PTA to leave him alone. Pretending to date for the summer is the perfect solution—and since neither of them wants to fall in love, nothing could possibly go wrong, right?

They're not supposed to get attached, but feelings don't follow rules…

Lina James has been coaxing flirtation and small talk out of her gorgeous gym partner a little at a time, day by day. Which is why she’s shocked when shy and quiet Dillon up and asks her to pose as his girlfriend for Thanksgiving.

According to Dillon, his family is pushy and a little crazy, and he’s hoping Lina can draw some attention away from their other Thanksgiving guest, the girl his brother hopes to marry.

Challenge accepted.

The more time they spend together, the more Dillon wishes he had just asked Lina out on a normal date, but they’re in so deep that it’s too late for that. His family is getting attached, and so is he. The only solution he can think of is to stage a break up and start over. Because Lina wants out, doesn't she?

Lina doesn't want out. She wants in. Dillon's family might be loony, but they're also awesome. But what if the family you've always wanted isn't yours to keep?

They may be faking their relationship, but they can’t fake the sparks that fly when they’re together.

Desperate to get away from her cheating ex, travel vlogger Holly books a last-minute cruise to the Caribbean, even though the only available packages left are part of a singles cruise.

Then she runs into Noah, who is equally appalled by the idea of dating anyone after being dumped on his wedding day. They immediately bond over their failed love lives and it doesn’t take long for them to become friends.

When Noah witnesses another passenger hitting on Holly and refusing to take no for an answer, he volunteers to be her fake boyfriend. But as time passes by, they start to realize they are getting more than what they bargained for.

Will Holly accept what’s right in front of her or will she keep running from her dreams?

The Best of You is book eight in the Oceanic Dreams series. This feel-good romantic comedy can be read as a standalone and makes for the perfect beach read. It's filled with laugh-out-loud and swoon-worthy moments.

$0.99 on 8/7/2019 – Gorgeous and the Geek by Rachel John

She thought he was a safe bet. She was wrong…

Faking a relationship with a costar for ratings is ridiculous, and Willa won’t do it unless she gets to pick the guy. There’s only one man she trusts in Hollywood: Doug Keller, a little on the geeky side and totally reliable. It’s just a few months, and if the show takes off, she’ll be one step closer to the independence she’s always craved.

Doug knows he’s in trouble. Willa Stanton is everything he’s ever wanted, and way too much for him to handle. Their on-camera chemistry is making it hard for him to keep his true feelings under wraps. And off-camera is even worse: she's making friends with his cat, kicking his butt in Gin Rummy, and making him wish he could be that soft place for her to land.
The closer they get, the harder it is to stick with the plan. She’s afraid of love. He’s afraid of getting played. What happens when the beauty falls for the geek?
