The Big Day Deceit

A marriage of convenience was never supposed to feel this complicated—or this real.

Annie Simmons never meant to say "I do"—she was just filling in for her sister at the altar. But a slip of the tongue, a shrewd parental scheme, and suddenly she's legally married to a man she's never met. Stuck in the countryside, sharing a cosy cottage with Conrad, she's determined to fix the mess—and leave before feelings get involved.

Conrad Brenman thought he'd married Louis—quiet, shy, unassuming. Instead, he got a fierce, sharp-witted partner in this unintentional rom‑com arrangement, one who keeps him on edge and questions everything he thought was certain. He agreed to the arrangement to secure his future, but Annie's defiant spirit and spark make the deal far more complicated.

They're a decade apart and forced to share a roof—an arrangement charged with unspoken tension, sharp edges, and a chemistry that refuses to stay buried. As hidden identities and old wounds surface, the slow-burn pull between them becomes impossible to ignore.

Can two strangers bound by deception discover real, second‑chance love before family secrets tear them apart?
