She was left at the altar eighteen months ago. Now her shop is failing, her ex is coming home for her sister’s wedding — and the town handyman just became her fake boyfriend.A slow-burn, small-town romance where love takes its time and grace shows up in the ordinary.
Della Sutton is the florist who keeps everyone else’s big day from falling apart — chin up, voice bright, never letting a soul see her needing a thing. What the town doesn’t know: her shop’s cooler just died, the money’s running out, and the man who jilted her eighteen months ago is coming home to stand up in her sister’s wedding.
Emmett Boone is the handyman everyone calls when something breaks. He’s got one shot at turning his grandfather’s farm into a wedding venue — if he can convince the bank he’s a man who puts down roots instead of driving off the second the job’s done.
So they make a deal. She gets a date who makes her look fine instead of pitied. He gets to look settled. They’ll stand next to each other until Easter, tell the same true-enough story, and walk away clean. No tallying. No feelings.
It’s a flawless arrangement — until Emmett starts seeing right through her, and Della realizes how little pretending it takes to fall for a good man.
