Two best friends who haven't spoken in ten years pretend to date after break-ups with their respective exes go viral, in this delightfully fun and deeply emotional new novel from New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord.
Two viral break-ups. One fake relationship. Five sparkling, heart-pounding dates.
June and Levi were best friends as teenagers - until the day they weren't. Now June is struggling to make rent on her beachside tea shop, Levi is living a New York cliche as a disillusioned hedge fund manager and failed novelist, and they've barely spoken in years.
But, after they both experience public, humiliating break-ups that spread like wildfire online, a photo of them together has the internet convinced they're a couple. With so many people rooting for them, they decide to put aside their rocky past and make a pact to fuel the fire by pretending to date. After all, that will help June's shop stay open and make Levi's ex realize what a mistake she made.
All they have to do is convince the world they're in love, one swoon-worthy photo opp at a time. Then they can happily go their separate ways with no regrets . . . right?
