Summary

'The perfect romcom' Lucy Vine

A laugh-out-loud romcom in 2024 perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey and Elena Armas

Committing to a fake romance is easy. It’s keeping it fake that’s the problem …

'Charming, funny, relatable' Sophie Cousens

'I’m still swooning, and I don’t swoon lightly' Lucy Vine

'A big, sunny hug of a book that I loved, and was so sad to finish' Cressida McLaughlin

Sophie Rogers finds it easy to focus on the important things in life. Like her daughter, her job and her family.

So when Joe, another single parent at school suggests they fake a romance to help them both out of a fix, she throws herself in.

But then Sophie starts to look forward to seeing Joe. In fact, she’s thinking about his floppy hair, Irish accent and the way his lips felt when they grazed hers (her commitment to this is exceptional) more than their synced calendars and staged socials. And there is a reason the yummy mummies called him Hot Single Dad.

Sophie Rogers isn't silly enough to fall in love with her fake boyfriend. Is she?

Tropes:

Enemies to lovers

Fake dating

Slow burn romance

'Heartwarming and funny, we loved this' Bella

'We couldn't put The Pick Up down' That's Life
