Publisher Description
They set rules for the summer - and broke every single one . . .
Renley Gossage has nothing but a struggling candy shop and a dream. She is determined to make it as Cape Meril's confectionary queen with no help, no shortcuts - and definitely no rich men wielding engagement rings and making things messy.
Theo Williams never thought he'd be flying across an ocean to propose to a stranger, but here he is, knocking on Renley's door with a shiny diamond. She's the one person who might be able to stop his life from falling apart, so he's here with a marriage proposal - and more importantly for Renley, a business proposal . . .
The Deal: Theo needs a wife so his stiff-upper-lipped father won't cut him off. Renley needs a financial backer, even if she's too stubborn to admit it.
The Rules: One fake engagement. One summer. Zero romance.
But between collapsing drywall, gossiping neighbours, and the chaotic schemes of Renley's aunt, their forced proximity turns into something dangerously close to real.
Except Renley can't let go of the idea that standing on her own two feet means not accepting help. And Theo's past is about to catch up with him. By the time the candy shop doors reopen, they'll have to decide if this is just a summer fling - or a happily ever after worth breaking the rules for . . .

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Quinn (Just for the Cameras) brings her signature high heat, eccentric characters, and over-the-top humor to this unlikely romance. Renley Gossage, who owns a struggling candy shop in small-town Cape Meril, Mass., signs up for a website that she believes will match her with a financier—but it's actually a service to match up people looking for fiancés. She's drunk at the time, but this comic misunderstanding still strains credulity, as Renley assumes that "DTF" on someone's profile stands for "down to finance." She matches with British Theo Williams, the future Lord Dunebary, who created his own account on a dare from his best friend, Rupert. When the press sniffs out Theo's presence on the site and spins it into a scandal, Theo's father threatens to force him to marry a woman he dislikes if his engagement to Renley falls through. So Theo heads to America with Rupert to propose for real. He's met by contempt from Renley, but vows to spend the summer changing her mind. His usual charm won't be enough to win her over, however. Instead it's his unwavering support for her candy shop dream that does the trick. There's plenty of background zaniness—Renley, for example, lives with an aunt who is obsessed with hobby horses—alongside the family drama, steamy scenes, and emotional declarations. It will be catnip for the author's fans.
