Publisher Description

Can fake dating lead to real love? In Kasie West's next sexy adult romcom two people must decide where the lie ends and the chemistry begins.

Sutton knows she needs therapy. After all, she’s managing her newly opened restaurant remotely while taking care of her ungrateful sick mother. Plus, her boyfriend of two years just dumped her over the phone. But does therapy with a handsome stranger, who she has to pretend to be engaged to, in order to help her friend’s struggling relationship count? Probably not. Then why did she just agree to go? Because she’s had a few too many drinks? Because this stranger, Elijah, is smug and annoying and really, really handsome? Because she feels guilty that she abandoned her best friend, Tara, after high school and this might just make up for it? Whatever the reason, she has committed to this unhinged plan.

What the hell is Sutton doing?

Helping Tara prove a point: a good therapist can tell the difference between real love and fake love. That’s what she’s doing. But as they attend their sessions, Sutton and Elijah only seem to be proving one thing—the lines between pretend desire and real desire are very blurry. This true connection forming between them is threatening to unravel everything Sutton thought she knew about family, friendship, and her own heart.

Stranger Things Have Happened Reviews

3.5
“This was such and fun, addictive rom-com, I literally couldn't stop reading it! I went into it pretty blind, I saw someone reccomend it and just went for it, and I'm glad I did. Is it groundbreaking for the genre? No. Did any of the plot points or the third act conflict surprise me? Of course not. But it was such an easy read. It had plenty of silly fun moments and lots of laughs, while also hitting me in the feels a few times. With the exception of the intentionally douchey characters everyone was super likeable. The pacing was really good, I never felt like it was dragging. The chemistry was sizzling, and there was a really solid amount of character growth. Highly recommend if you're looking to just read a fun romance with humor and heart!”
“Libby/audio Super cute! These two characters have really good chemistry and banter. I loved them by the end. The third act breakup was brutal, and long, but in general, in spite of my irritations i really enjoyed this.”
