Nico''s life is a mess, and he doesn''t want to drag his best friend''s little sister into it. Unfortunately, Lee might just be the answer to all his problems... if he can keep his hands off her. With the help of the whole town, Nico and Lee have to convince the world that they''re happily married and in love... but what happens when the story they''re telling starts to feel too much like the truth?

Klappentext

'The yearning was one for the record books' SARRA MANNING

'The ideal balance of sweet and sexy' MARIAN KEYES

'As heartfelt as a Taylor Swift song and as cosy as a pumpkin spiced latte' ZOË FOLBIGG

From the author of Under Your Spell comes a funny, cosy small-town romance about an accidental Vegas marriage, two people forced to fake a relationship and a town determined to play matchmaker. Perfect for fans of Laurie Gilmore, Sarah Adams and Lynn Painter.

What happens in Vegas, never stays in Vegas . . .

Waking up in a Las Vegas hotel room with her brother's best friend isn't exactly rule-follower Ophelia 'Lee' Turner-Jones' finest moment. She's spent the past year trying to forget it ever happened, until a surprise email from a wedding chapel lands in her inbox. Now Lee has no choice but to track Nico down . . . and tell him they're married.

The last place she expects to find the man who has always lived on the wild side is a small Maine town full of lovable eccentrics. Breaking the news to him should be simple, but walking away proves impossible when she discovers that Nico needs a wife to save everything - and everyone - he holds dear.

Agreeing to play the role of happily married couple is risky enough. Doing it with the man she's secretly loved for years, while the whole town throws themselves into the charade, might just end in disaster. Still, Lee can't help but wonder if their fake relationship could finally be the start of something real.
