Hallie Evans has a good life—except for one glaring problem: her maddeningly attractive, arrogant, playboy neighbor, James Cole. He keeps her up at night—literally and figuratively—with his endless parade of late-night conquests and his irritating habit of pushing her buttons. She’d move if she could, but every penny is going toward saving her family’s summer camp.
Her shot at a big promotion at Winter Brothers’ Vineyard feels like the lifeline she needs—until a rumor throws her into a tailspin. Apparently, the bosses might favor a “family-oriented” candidate, and Hallie’s single status suddenly feels like a liability. When a spur-of-the-moment lie spirals out of control, Hallie finds herself fake-dating the last person on earth she’d choose—James Cole.
With a week-long company retreat looming, she has no choice but to bring him along and sell the charade. Seven days. That’s all it is. How hard could it be?
