What to expect
Isla’s first rule of fake dating: don’t fall in love
After I got cheated on, I thought things couldn’t get worse … until I moved next door to Alistair Macabe.
Despite his dreamy eyes, we both had issues. I was sick of everyone feeling sorry for me. And he – the world’s grumpiest doctor – was struggling to get any patients.
So, naturally, the only solution to our problems was to hatch a fake dating scheme. One that will turn heads in this small town. I’ll prove I’m over my ex, and he’ll show he has a softer side.
But I never expected fake love to feel this good…
