She avoids the posters his ad agency plaster around town, ignores the calls she knows are really from him, and pretends she doesn't notice when employees from his company conveniently start ordering lunch from her deli three times a week. Noah, unfortunately, has mastered absolutely none of it. Between helping to run his family's prestigious advertising agency and dodging the ex-girlfriend who helped destroy his relationship, Noah is already one public disaster away from losing his damn mind. But when he's cornered by said ex he panics and blurts out that he's still dating Bailey. What starts as a reckless lie quickly spirals into a townwide obsession. Suddenly, Bailey's deli is flooded with new customers eager to catch a glimpse of the woman dating a Larsson man. Social media can't get enough of their 'second chance at love.' And for the first time since opening her doors, Bailey's business is truly thriving. The arrangement should be temporary, harmless, even. But fake dating the man who once broke her heart is complicated when Noah becomes a favourite between her customers, starts flirting like no time has passed between them, and keeps looking at her as though losing her was the biggest mistake of his life. And the more they pretend to be in love again, the more Bailey begins to realise Noah never really stopped. *** *THIS IS BOOK TWO IN THE SERIES.

He was her first love and 'never'... She will be his last and 'forever'. *** Tessa Maxfield has always been the smart one because she couldn't be the pretty one or the cool one. And she's fine with that. The upside of being smart is not making stupid decisions like she did as a kid, falling in love with her older brother's best friend. She outgrew that and could still outsmart it now. Jake Hastings has always been a playboy because he could be so why not? But his best friend's rash wedding and fairytale marriage has left him wondering if he could have more. The downside to his notorious reputation is that when he unexpectedly finds the girl he can't live without, she won't believe him. He burned that bridge a long time ago and she's not letting him build a new one now. Can two people who want so much of what they're afraid of find their way through first loves and second chances to finally find each other? *** This is a spin-off from The Mischievous Mrs. Maxfield. It can be read standalone but I would highly recommend reading the original book first before this one for a lot more context and extra scenes. *** Copyright © 2016 by Nina Tippett.
