About this book

When romance author Riley gets a text meant for someone else, she discovers she's inherited the phone number of Connor, a charming guy desperate to convince his small town he's finally moved on from his ex. What starts as a hilarious text chain and a mutually beneficial fake-dating arrangement quickly becomes something neither of them expected—real feelings with actual stakes. As Riley researches her next book and Connor tries to outrun his past, they're forced to confront whether their serendipitous connection is just great chemistry or the real deal. Kylie Scott delivers the perfect blend of laugh-out-loud banter and swoon-worthy moments in this gem of a rom-com that'll make you believe in second chances.
