Faking It With the Grump — Kate O'Keeffe

He's as grumpy as Mr. Darcy crossed with Oscar the Grouch-but his kiss is a plot twist I did not see coming.Imagine this: getting the old heave-ho from Dex, the Hollywood heartthrob I thought I was destined to marry. And as a special bonus, I've won a free ticket back to my small hometown in Washington state.Suddenly, every mother's son, second cousin twice removed, and the neighbor's cat groomer is being lined up to be my next great love. And don't even get me started on the Oh, you poor thing expressions that are practically giving me sympathy-induced whiplash.Enter stage left one Christopher Young, the shiny new import to Hunter's Creek. I decide to take on the challenge of making him mine-or at least faking it with style. I'm in a post-being dumped daze right now, and Christopher? Think master of all things dull and cranky and the proud owner of a suit-and-tie in a sea of flannel-wearing lumberjacks. He's the perfect fake boyfriend to put those relentless matchmakers off the scent.And the totally irrelevant fact that the public kiss we just shared is doing weird things to my blood pressure doesn't mean a thing.Really.Not. A. Thing.This relationship is as fake as a Real Housewife's lips, and that's the way it's going to stay.Faking It With The Grump is a grumpy-sunshine, opposites attract, fake relationship romance set in the small town of Hunter's Creek, Washington. It's the first book in the new Second Chance Café series. Each book follows a different sister's love story and can be read as a standalone novel or as part of a series.
