In this sweet romance, baker Leah Martin stumbles into a fake-engagement with a handsome stranger after he defends her from her mother's harsh judgement—but how long can they keep up the act before real feelings start to get in the way?
The rules of (fake) engagement ...
Leah Martin has spent her life trying to avoid temptation. But she's sick of low-fat snacks, counting calories, and her hyper-critical mom. Fortunately, her popular new bakery keeps her good and distracted. But there aren't enough eclairs in the world to distract Leah from the hotness that is Sam Cooper—or the fact that he just told her mother that they're engaged ... which is a big, fat lie.
Sam sometime speaks before he thinks. So what started out as defending Leah's date-ability to her judgmental mother soon turned into having a fiancee! Now the plan is to keep up the fake engagement, stay "just friends," and make Leah's family loathe him enough to just call the whole thing off. But Sam has an insatiable sweet tooth, not only for Leah's decadent desserts but her decadent curves. Her full lips. Her bright green eyes. Yep, things aren't going quite according to plan. Now Sam has to convince Leah that he's for real ... before their little lie turns into one big, sweet disaster.
