Pretending to Wed

(2026)
A novel by

 
 
She uncouples happy couples for a living. The last thing she needs is a fake fiancé.

Divorce lawyer Maddie knows romance is a trap. So when her whirlwind sister, Sarah, announces her third wedding - this time to a steady, sensible guy named Richard - Maddy's cynic alarm blares long and loud.

To make matters worse, Sarah wants Maddy as her bridesmaid again, but she is desperate for Maddy to dodge the 'three times a bridesmaid, never a bride' curse. Enter the solution: a fake engagement between Maddie and Richard's dangerously charming brother, Griffen.

Griffen is only too happy to play along. He is already falling hard for the serious lawyer.

When the bride and groom suddenly become 'too busy' to organise their own big day, Maddy and Griffen are forced to plan the entire wedding together. Between menu tastings, dress fittings and fake dates that feel suspiciously real, Maddy finds her defences melting. Bat as the wedding day approaches, she begins to suspect that her sister's chaotic love life isn't the only thing out of control.

A breezy, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy packed with sisterly chaos, fake-dating sparks, and a wedding day nobody sees coming.
