“Okay so I absolutely devoured this book in less than 5 hours, what did you put in this??!! … Honestly, I was so invested… So many laugh out loud moments… Fantastic read! ” Rebeccaabooktok , ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Two weeks and two fake dates with Brock Holt—the infuriating firefighter with a savior complex, tough-guy attitude and a body as hot as his temper. And the last person single-by-choice schoolteacher Nix would ever fall for. Nix ’s heart is on permanent lockdown after her mom walked out on her, but she needs a date to her cousin’s engagement party. Anything to put an end to the relentless single-shaming. Can she find someone—preferably smokin’—willing to spend Thanksgiving weekend with her meddling family in a tiny seaside town in the middle of nowhere? Brock got burned falling for the wrong girl. But his potential promotion to captain hinges on him having a date for the annual firefighters’ gala. Can he convince the entire community that his short fuse is a thing of the past, that he’s ready for a serious new role as a fire hall leader? They’ve agreed: falling in love is not an option. And soon, they’re fooling everyone. Even themselves. But when sparks fly at the fire department dance, and Brock utterly charms Nix’s hard-to-impress aunt over a cozy breakfast of pancakes and maple syrup, the alarm bells start to ring… A swoony, sweet and steamy fake-dating romance that is the perfect comfort read.
