Summary

A fresh, fun contemporary rom-com from debut author Elle Gonzalez Rose, about an aspiring artist who agrees to fake date one of his family’s longtime enemies in the hopes of gathering intel good enough to take down their rivals once and for all.

Devin Baez is ready for a relaxing winter break at Lake Andreas. That is, until he runs into his obnoxious next-door neighbors the Seo-Cookes, undefeated champions of the lake’s annual Winter Games. In the hope of finally taking down these long-time rivals, the Baezes offer up their beloved cabin in a bet. Reckless? Definitely.

So when annoyingly handsome Julian Seo-Cooke finds himself in need of a fake boyfriend, Devin sees an opportunity to get behind enemy lines and prove the family plays dirty.

As long as Devin and Julian’s families are at war, there’s only room for loathing between them. Which is a problem because, for Devin, this faux game of love is feeling very real.

Critic reviews

“There’s nothing faux about the iron grip this book has on my heart. I’m in urgent care right now because I swooned so hard I pulled a muscle!” —Sonora Reyes, National Book Award Finalist

Caught in a Bad Fauxmance gave the summer-camp-romance vibes in the middle of winter that I never knew I needed! Effortlessly witty and warm. I adored every minute in Devin’s snarky, creative mind, with his lovably chaotic family, and in his cozy lakeside town!” —Kaitlyn Hill, author of Love from Scratch and Not Here to Stay Friends

"This energetic and hilarious tale boasts fun-in-the-sun shenanigans and a Shakespearean aura in the protagonist’s clear chemistry, prank exchanges, and stolen kisses." Publishers Weekly
