Though she was filled with joy when he proposed to her, she began to feel trapped by the thought of a future with him and his single-minded devotion. When Ellie was caught with another man on the day before their wedding, they canceled the wedding in heartbreak. Twelve years later, Ellie is struggling as a single mother and caring for a daughter with a serious heart condition when Andrew enters her life once again—as Hetta’s doctor.

What would life be like with the one who got away? From the acclaimed author of My Husband’s Sweethearts comes this bighearted, funny, fiercely perceptive tale about a happily married woman and the little white lie that changed everything. For Gwen Merchant, love has always been doled out in little packets—from her father, who lost himself in work after her mother’s death, and from her husband, Peter, who’s always been respectable and safe. But when an old college boyfriend, the irrepressible Elliot Hull, invites himself back into Gwen’s life with a surprising proposition, she suddenly starts questioning everything she’s ever expected from love. Elliot, it turns out, is in need of a pretend wife, just for the weekend, in order to fulfill his dying mother’s last wish. But as Gwen finds herself drawn into Elliot’s quirky, wonderful family—and uncovers a few secrets about her own—a pretend relationship just might turn out to be the most real thing she’s ever known. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Bridget Asher's The Provence Cure for the Brokenhearted.

Billionaire Daniel Trent needs a date for his best friend Grayson’s wedding, but he’s got a bit of a problem. His current closest relationship is with his house sitter, Jackie Stone, who he’s never actually met. Their flirty notes about his beloved tankful of exotic fish are the only fun part of his busy work-only life. When he comes home early after a business trip to find Jackie naked in his bathtub, Daniel is pleasantly surprised to find the woman he likes is absolutely adorable. Grayson, assuming Daniel and Jackie are a couple, suggests Daniel bring her to his wedding. Teasing Daniel over his commitment issues, he even bets that Daniel will end things before the wedding is over. After all, Daniel rarely gets past two dates with any woman. Daniel takes the bet, hoping that Jackie agrees to be his fake girlfriend. The worst thing that could happen is he’ll lose the bet. He certainly won’t lose his heart... Though Jackie agrees to go as Daniel’s wedding date, it turns out the man is the worst boyfriend. Ever. There’s no way they’ll convince anyone at the pre-wedding festivities that they’re a couple. And she really, really wants Daniel to win that bet because he promised to pay for her final year of graduate school if he does. If she wants any chance of that happening, she knows they’ll have to practice acting like a couple, which leads to…the kiss. And then more. Which is bad. The last thing Jackie wants is for this business arrangement to get complicated, and it’s definitely getting complicated. But it’s also getting harder and harder to remind herself that falling for Daniel would be a colossal mistake. A mistake her heart, unfortunately, seems more than willing to make…
