CAN YOU FALL IN LOVE IF YOU'RE ONLY EVER PRETENDING?

Sophie, 25.
Looking for: a plus one
Perfect first date: At my sister's wedding pretending we're already dating . . .

Lifelong singleton, Sophie, is looking for love. With her friends settling down and her family piling on the pressure, it seems that her anonymous column about relationships is more successful than her actual dating life. But now, with her sister's wedding approaching, she's determined not to turn up alone - and if she can't find her soulmate in time, she'll just have to fake one.

Enter Harry. Charming, attractive and seeking a post-break-up distraction, he answers Sophie's plea on a dating app, promising an all-expenses-paid weekend to anyone crazy enough to go along with her charade. And with the wedding a hit and a calendar full of "couple" events on the horizon, the pair realise the only way they'll survive the next few months is with each other - and a little white lie . . .

But as their love deception deepens and the pair grow closer, Sophie realises their charade may be holding them back from facing the truth. After all, when you're pretending to be in love, how is it possible to find the real thing?

From the author of YA sensation and Netflix hit THE KISSING BOOTH, and LOVE, LOCKED DOWN, this is the ultimate fake-dating love story, perfect for fans of THE SPANISH LOVE DECEPTION, THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS and THE HATING GAMEAll Rights Reserved

Sebastian Reed has everything he ever wanted: dream career, dream lifestyle, dream girl. For the last year, his life has taken the best turn. Sebastian has been living the life he wanted all along. Until he wasn't. Because he didn't have the dream girl anymore. Sebastian Reed left home with his dream girl at home, only to come home to be greeted with a breakup.

Jennifer Kinley has been friends with her best friend, Andrea Brennan, for the last 5 years, and since then, she has been acquainted with people she wouldn't have expected to meet. Now, a full year later, she hasn't thought the first time she would speak to the best friend of Andrea's future husband would be to be roped into a deal. A deal that requires lies. A deal that starts off with, "Can you please be my girlfriend for the next few months?" Jen was shocked, but even then she she couldn't seem to throw the chance away. Not when she had things she had been trying to bury. This could be her ticket to redemption. Fake dating wasn't supposed to be on the table, but it is now. For the next few months, after the wedding of Miles Alvarez and Andrea Brennan, the two need to show Hannah that Bash is over her. But as time goes on, Bash will need to make a decision. Whether he is working on this deal to get over his ex-girlfriend or a ploy to get her back? Will his first love ever be something he can give up?

Side Note: I Think I Love You by authordayajames

Side note: never fall for your fake boyfriend. When my best friend convinced me to write a love letter to my crush, I didn't expect it to all go south. Because instead of the most realistic scenario-him reading the letter and rejecting me privately-the last thing I'd ever expected to happen did. The letter doesn't end up in his locker. But in the locker of one of the most popular football players in the senior class, Ian Bale. Who also just happens to be my crush's older brother. Luckily, he promises to keep it a secret. But our actions start spreading rumors about us and in the next minute, I'm thrown into a fake relationship. But it works out for the both of us. Ian saves me from potential embarrassment while I help get his friends off his back about his dating life (or lack thereof). However, as the month progresses, I find myself enjoying more and more of his company. From his cheesy pick-up lines to his sense of wonder and even his nerdy glasses. My priorities begin to shift and I can't help but be a little terrified of the prospect of trusting another guy again. But I think I can make an exception. For fans of Jenny Han, Cookie O'Gorman, and happily ever afters with a sprinkling of real world problems, get ready to dive into the first installment of this beachside romance.
