Sweet and swoony fake-dating romance - because life's never perfect but pretending might be. A dreamy contemporary love story from the brilliantly talented author of We Used to be Magic.

When her boy next-door first love breaks her heart, Dee is devastated. Wilf's been the boy of her dreams forever... till he moved to uni and made moves on his flatmate. But an unexpected offer from his awkward but hot uni neighbour, Arthur, brings a whole new spin with an invitation to a gorgeous week-long wedding celebration. Maybe Dee can get her sweet revenge and show Wilf exactly what he's missing? The fact that he loathes Arthur doesn't hurt either.

The only catch is, she's not there just to fill the guestlist; Dee's been invited as Arthur's 'long-term girlfriend', and Arthur just happens to be the brother of the bride. This wedding party's about to get complicated...

A romantic slow-burn love story as fake-dating gets a gorgeous wedding twist. Perfect for fans of Lynn Painter, Emily Henry and Ali Hazelwood.
