About The Author

My Review

This book is about fake dating gone delightfully wrong, unexpected family, and falling in love when you least expect. This is a charming, feel-good romance that pulled me in from the very first chapter with its lovable characters and warm small-town setting.

Wyatt Larrabee returns to Legacy Canyon, Texas, juggling life as a newly adoptive dad to twin boys, ranch responsibilities, and a job that suddenly puts him in the spotlight. After a TV interview sparks unwanted romantic attention, the last thing he needs is love. Madi Brennan, a pediatrician temporarily home before returning to Boston, agrees to a date only to satisfy her well-meaning, meddlesome grandmother. When the two decide to pretend they’re dating to keep the matchmakers at bay, sparks quickly begin to fly.

I adored the combination of cute babies, a swoony hero, and just the right amount of sizzle. The fake-dating trope is handled with humor and heart, and the nosy but loving grandmother adds extra charm. Lightly romantic, funny, and wonderfully escapist, this story kept a smile on my face throughout and was the perfect break from reality.
