When a reservation snafu strands hyper-organized marketer Sophie Caldwell in a honeymoon suite with barefoot travel photographer Liam Reyes, survival looks like painter’s tape down the middle and zero small talk. Then Isla Paradiso kicks off Wedding Week, the resort is overbooked, and a cheerful concierge lists them as “the happy couple.” To keep the room—and maybe enjoy a few perks—they agree to fake an engagement until the crowds thin. Couples’ massages become “research,” sunset cruises double as “content,” and one staged kiss short-circuits their boundaries. Sophie plans everything; Liam trusts the moment. Together, they make a beautiful mess—and something that feels real. When a career-making pitch demands Sophie be flawlessly reliable and Liam’s next assignment could send him away for months, their charade unravels. A storm, a secret, and a choice on a rain-slicked dock force them to decide: keep pretending for convenience—or risk everything on a love they never planned. Happily-ever-after guaranteed.
