Childhood best friends turned workplace rivals must pretend to be engaged in order to save their jobs in this sexy rom-com.

Former childhood friends Jasmine Morgan, a PR expert, and Derek Carter, a meticulous corporate executive, have a renowned rivalry. Yet they’ve never revealed to anyone what turned their relationship sour. So when they’re thrown together on a revitalization project in the quaint town of Miller’s Cove, Florida, they plan to keep their distance and keep communication at a minimum.

Only when they roll with the little white lie of being on their honeymoon to get into an exclusive town event, they’re soon forced to keep pretending when they find out how fast news travels in a small town. Living in close quarters, navigating their rocky past, and working together day and night begins to crumble their prickly professional facades, revealing buried chemistry between them. They soon stumble across a hidden horticultural oasis planted by a pioneering Black inventor and must formulate a plan to protect the town from the corporate greed they didn’t realize they played roles in. As they navigate obstacles and uncover hidden treasures, they rediscover old feelings and realize love might be the most valuable discovery of all.

About the Author

Lucy Eden is a romance-obsessed author who writes the kind of romance she loves to read. She’s a sucker for alphas with a soft gooey center, over-the-top romantic gestures, strong heroines, love at first sight (or pretty damn close), happily ever afters, and steamy love scenes.

When Lucy isn’t writing, she’s busy reading—or listening to—every book she can get her hands on—romance or otherwise.

She lives and loves in New York with her husband, two children, a turtle and a Yorkshire Terrier.
