Six hours of fake dating with a man she'll probably never see again. What's the worst that could happen?

Agnes has run her family's restaurant, The Shark Biscuit, for the last six years, ever since her father's health took a turn and she had to step in to keep the doors open. Now she's crippled with guilt because it's her fault it's closing. One more night and she's free.

Harrison loves squaring off against the infuriating yet enchanting Agnes, but in six hours he will no longer be by her side, day after day. When Agnes' ex-boyfriend brings his entire family in for dinner to show support, thinking it will win her back, she begs Harrison for help. Pretend to be her boyfriend through the dinner rush until her ex leaves.

As the night rolls on, fake dating starts to feel more real than not. If only they weren't carrying secrets that could tear each other's worlds apart...

The hilarious and spicy romcom of the year, perfect for fans of Sarah Adams, Meghan Quinn and Beth O'Leary.
