Melinda De Ross

_{Susanne Morelli has a teaching job she loves, a gang of amazing (if slightly unhinged) friends, and a lifetime supply of wine thanks to her family’s vineyard. The only dark cloud is her mother’s relentless campaign to marry her off—and now Mamma Morelli wants her back with her cheating ex-fiancé.}

_{Cam Jones likes things neat, quiet, and commitment-free. His software company is his priority; dating is just background noise ever since his ex wrecked his trust. His new neighbor, Sue, wreaks havoc on his routines—in a good way. He’s fantasized about her blond cuteness and bunny slippers for years. When a surprise visit from Sue’s parents and an ambush from his ex push them into a fake engagement, he seizes the chance to rescue her.}

_{Between her meddling mom, the evil exes, and a pretend relationship that’s starting to feel dangerously real, Sue’s got two choices: finally grow a backbone… or get steamrolled by everyone else’s idea of her happily ever after.}
