First she invades my home, then she steals my heart. I thought I was getting a quiet, low-maintenance guy as a roommate. Someone who’d pay rent on time, keep to themselves, and not disrupt my carefully guarded solitude. Then she showed up. Sam. Petite, honey brown hair, and so radiant it hurts to look at her. She’s all smiles and sunshine, while I’m standing there wondering how to back out of our agreement without being a total asshole. But she’s desperate for a place to stay, and I—idiot that I am—can’t bring myself to refuse. Now every day is torture. Her laughter echoes ...

I shouldn’t be here. When I called into the radio quiz, I didn’t even know what the prize was. A luxury vacation for two in Crete, apparently. And I have no plus-one.

But Mr. Tall, Broody, and Beautiful is sitting next to me, on his way to a funeral and a reckoning with his past. And somehow, I end up volunteering to be his fake girlfriend. Impulsive? Obviously. A terrible idea? Absolutely. But Chris isn’t just a man with broad shoulders and quiet eyes—he’s carrying a weight that makes my chest ache. The more he shares, the more I’m drawn to him.

Love is blind, or is it? It was only supposed to be a two hour stopover. Instead, I’m going to be stuck in quarantine in a bland airport hotel for two weeks.

Irina and Matt find each other in an unusual predicament; ‘meeting’ as faceless voices ...

And when I lose my mind and start quoting steamy romance-novel pick up lines at him, he doesn’t just play along—he fires back. Did I really just flirt my way into the arms of the bartender of my dreams? Or am I about to crash and burn like the awkward disaster I am? Because I’ve literally never done this ...

I’m the guy who has everything… except her. At 47, I’ve built a restaurant empire and a TV career on discipline and sharp edges. Love? Never had the time, and certainly never had the patience.

But her business is about to close its doors, and it’s all because of me. Now I...

I might only be 24, but I've always been the sensible one. From my boring call center job right down to my practical wardrobe; impulsive and extravagant are not part of my usual vocabulary.
