Ari Langford thought getting dumped, broke, and forced to move back in with her parents was rock bottom.

Then her younger sister got engaged.

Now Ari''s back home in Vermont, watching the entire town lose their minds over the ‘wedding of the century’ while her mother keeps trying to set her up with every single man within a fifty-mile radius.

The only bright spot? Wade Stevenson.

Unfortunately, Wade is also the problem.

The charming high school principal has a reputation for flirting first and thinking later, and half the town is still waiting for him to screw up so bad he loses his job. So when a student’s inappropriate crush threatens to turn into dangerous gossip—or worse—Wade needs a respectable girlfriend fast. Ari needs her mother off her back. Fake dating seems like the perfect solution.

Until it isn’t.

Because suddenly they’re sharing cider donuts at the fall festival, sitting by each other at the football games, and spending more time together than either of them planned. The closer they get, the harder it becomes to remember where the act ends.

Falling for the town’s playboy? That was never supposed to happen.

And Ari’s not sure which is scarier: Wade breaking her heart or realizing he actually could.
