Noelle Lewis has her sights set on returning to college, but after losing her job, finding the money for tuition feels more challenging than ever. Between odd jobs and working as a stand-in bridesmaid, she’s doing everything she can to reach her goal—until an unexpected opportunity lands in her lap.

Jeremiah Smith II is trying to leave his carefree reputation behind and focus on his family’s business. When a visit to his family’s summer home brings back memories he’d rather avoid, he makes a spur-of-the-moment claim that he already has plans with his girlfriend. The only problem? She doesn’t exist.

After a chance encounter, Noelle agrees to play the part of Jeremiah’s girlfriend in exchange for a paycheck that could help fund her future. What begins as a simple arrangement soon becomes far more complicated when a weekend at Heart Beach, New Jersey stretches into an entire summer filled with family gatherings, growing feelings, and undeniable chemistry.

As the line between pretend and real begins to blur, Noelle and Jeremiah must decide whether they’re willing to risk their hearts for something that was never supposed to last. Full of charm, warmth, and swoon-worthy romance, this delightful fake-dating story is the perfect summer escape.
