Jess Harper finally has the fresh start she was
looking for until she needs a fake date to survive her ex’s wedding weekend.
Caleb Ward is the reliable, closed-off man who agrees to help, expecting
nothing more than a favor. But when their pretend relationship starts to feel
real, they’ll have to decide if they’re brave enough to risk everything for
something neither of them believed they deserved. Readers who enjoy steamy fake
dating romances will devour Fake It Until It’s Real by Tina Gallagher & Cissy
Mecca, a small-town, forced proximity romance.
Maplemoor is Jess Harper's fresh start. A quiet place to
rebuild after a future that never happened. Now she has a book club that feels
like family, a coffee shop that knows her order, and a life that finally feels
steady again.
What she doesn't have is a date to her best friend's
wedding—the one where her ex and his brand-new fiancée will also be there.
Enter Caleb Ward. Dependable. Steady. The kind of man who
shows up before you even have to ask—for everyone except himself. He's got a
life in Maplemoor that works for him, but when it comes to love, he keeps his
walls firmly in place—and exactly where he wants them.
Agreeing to be Jess's date to the wedding is just a favor.
Nothing more.
Until it isn't.
One weekend together. One very convincing performance.
Turns out the line between pretending and real is thinner
than either of them thought. The hard part is knowing which side they're on.

Operations Manager Carli Porter runs The Lochwell as if it were her own and is fiercely protective of the community she’s built within its walls. But when the building's owner sends in his best friend to evaluate its future, Caril finds herself fighting to keep everything she loves from slipping away. Left with no other option, she’s forced to team up with Alexander Grassi, the very man who could decide the building's fate. Readers who enjoy steamy, he-falls-first romances will devour Fight It Until We Can’t by Cissy Mecca & Tina Gallagher, a small-town, rivals-to-lovers romance.
She's the operations manager who will make sure he doesn't.
Carli Porter runs The Lochwell like it's hers. The coffee
shop is her living room. Its book club members are her family. The residents
are her friends. The pub is her Friday night. The only problem? The building
belongs to someone else, and that someone just sent his best friend to decide
its fate.
Alexander Grassi is smart and annoyingly hard to hate. He
also has the kind of forearms that make it very difficult to stay mad at him.
(She's tried. It hasn't worked.) He's supposed to write a report, hand it over
to his friend and leave. He wasn't supposed to start showing up to trivia
night. Or turning her coffee cup so the handle faces her. Or looking at her
like she's the best thing in a building full of things worth saving.
She says his report could ruin her life.
He says she's not wrong.
She says that's makes him the last person she should want
around.
He says he's staying anyway.
Because some legacies (and people) are worth fighting for.

traveling, and taking pole dance lessons, Tina enjoys spending time with her
two grown children and Golden Irish named Thea.
