He came to Whistle Cove to escape being Rhett Hunt. Then he asked the one woman who knows exactly what that means to pretend she's in love with him.
Rhett Hunt was born into country music royalty—and has spent most of his life living up to the family name.
After years of hit records, sold-out tours, and never-ending demands, the country music superstar is running on empty. So when the celebrity wedding of the year brings him to the sleepy seaside town of Whistle Cove, Rhett sees his chance to disappear for a while.
No touring. No expectations. No pretending to love a life he's no longer sure he wants.
Then an overly determined young starlet sets her sights on him, and Rhett needs a convincing way to make it clear he's unavailable.
His solution?
Jessie Wilder.
Jessie knows a thing or two about famous families. As one of the Wilder Sisters, she grew up with music in her blood, a recognizable last name, and Rhett Hunt firmly established as the crush she never quite got over.
Their families go way back.
So do Rhett and Jessie.
Which makes pretending to be his girlfriend a very bad idea.
Pretending to be his fiancée is even worse.
Jessie knows this is only temporary. Rhett will eventually return to Nashville and the career waiting for him, while she'll stay in Whistle Cove rebuilding the life her family's scandal nearly destroyed.
But fake kisses start lingering. Old feelings become impossible to ignore. And away from the spotlight, Jessie discovers the man behind the country music legend—a man who is tired of being everything everyone expects him to be.
For the first time in years, Rhett can imagine a different life.
And Jessie is becoming the one thing he never expected to find during his escape:
A reason not to leave.
A swoony fake-relationship romance about country music royalty, old crushes, family legacies, and discovering that sometimes the life you need is the one you never planned.
