Barry Radcliffe didn’t come back to Blakely Bay to fall in love—he came to hide. After a high-profile New York scandal, he retreats to his quiet hometown, determined to keep his head down and his heart locked up.
I came back to help my grandmother and catch my breath. What I didn’t expect? My first crush moving in next door—broody, low-key billionaire—and a town that refuses to mind its business.
A fundraiser turns us into Blakely Bay’s fake-dating darlings, and suddenly we’re planning the Oyster Roast, saving the Beach Club, and pretending that kiss was “just for the cameras.”
It doesn’t take long and I want pretend to be real. But when a corporate buyout threatens everything we grew up loving—and I find proof Barry was set up—our pretend relationship turns into a very real fight for his name… and our future. Because in this town, secrets don’t stay buried long… and neither does love.
A clean, heartwarming beach-town romance with a grumpy billionaire, a fake date, and a second chance at forever. $0.99 on Kindle.
