Fake date. Real trouble. Fall for a new trope-tactic, fake dating rom-com read from USA Today bestselling author, Lila Monroe! Perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey, Ali Hazelwood, and Emily Henry.
 
Jackson Kane is a hot Hollywood A-lister… and the first guy I ever loved. We spent a magical summer together ten years ago, but now he’s off dazzling on the red carpet, and I’m… up to my elbows in cranky plumbing, renovating my grandparents’ old B&B on Cape Cod. He’s the last man I’d expect to run into with a wet T-shirt and a Minions bra (don’t ask) — until it turns out, he’s shooting his latest movie right here in Blackberry Cove.
 
And he wants me back.
 
There’s no way I’m getting swept up in his celebrity circus… until my bitchy cousin lays claim to our family heirloom engagement ring, and I need a fake boyfriend to beat her game. A handsome charmer with perfect acting chops… Now where can I find one of those…?
 
It’s supposed to be just for show, but Jackson is determined to show me our chemistry is just as strong as ever. And boy, is he impossible to resist. But between movie shenanigans, stroppy starlets, and – oh yes – the hoards of paparazzi suddenly trailing our every move, this fake date is more real than I ever imagined.
 
Can we find a way to take a second chance at first love? Find out in the hot & hilarious new romantic comedy from Lila Monroe!

My Review...

What a fabulous start to a new series! This is the introduction of some new characters. The focus of this one is Jackson and Tessa.

Tessa is starting over; her life before was in shambles, and she is trying to make a better future for herself. She is strong yet has a vulnerability that she doesn’t like to show.

Enter Tessa’s long-ago summer romance, Jackson. Now he is a huge upcoming movie star. And he wants what he had that summer all those years ago, and he wants to make it more.

In true Lila Monroe fashion, you get heart, heat, and hilarity with this new story. You get fantastic side characters that bring a richness to the world that Ms. Monroe has created in Blackberry Cove.

I can’t wait to see what comes next from the talented mind of this amazing author!
