The parts she's spent years trying to make smaller. And worst of all? He stays. But learning how to be loved might be even scarier than being alone. 💛 Slow burn romance 📚 Bookstore vibes ✨ Found family 🫶 Mental health & neurodivergent rep 🔥 He falls first ❤️ Happily Ever After

Wren Calloway has a year and a day to save her grandmother's house. She has exactly one terrible idea for how. When a forgotten clause in her town's century-old charter threatens to hand Cormorant House over to a luxury resort developer, Wren has only one path to keep it: prove the house is a real home, shared with another person, for a full year. The catch? She's lived there alone since her grandmother died, and the deadline is closing fast. Enter Asher Reyes: her best friend of six years, and, inconveniently, the architect who designed the very resort trying to take her grandmother's house. He quit the firm in protest months ago. He's the only person she trusts enough to ask. And he says yes before either of them can think too hard about why. It should be simple. Move in. Play house for the county inspectors. Save the house. Stay friends. It is not simple. Because the resort's PR team gets wind of the "local love story" living inside the property they're trying to buy, and decides it's the best marketing they've ever had, plastering Wren and Asher's faces across a banner the size of a barn. Because Mrs. Okafor, the town clerk with a weakness for romance novels, keeps "helping" in ways that nearly blow the whole arrangement. Because somewhere between the fake engagement and the real ring, the two of them stop pretending and nobody bothers to say so out loud. By the time the actual audit arrives, neither of them is sure anymore which parts were ever fake at all. A Year and a Day is a slow-burn, friends-to-fake-fiancés romantic comedy set in the misty Cascade foothills, perfect for readers who love small-town charm, found family, and a love story that sneaks up on you one shared bathroom and one stolen ring at a time.
