Finley Blankenship is tired of always coming up short. When her long-time boyfriend dumps her because he isn't ready to commit, only to announce his engagement to someone else months later, she's had it. So when her now ex comes to her flower shop to check how she's doing after hearing the news, she lies and tells him she's moved on. Only for her brother's best friend to walk in at the same time and get roped into her story. Committed to playing the part, she reluctantly agrees to pretend to be in a relationship with the one man in their small town that would never actually date her.
Grey Sutton has been in love with Finley for fifteen years, but he's never thought he had a chance. After all, he's an honorary member of the Blankenship family because his own is so dysfunctional. He has no idea how to give Finley what she wants. Especially since he was offered a job out of state, and Finley is as rooted in this town as the trees.
But as their relationship starts to feel less and less like a charade, it leaves them with more uncertainty than ever. Lines start to blur, and Grey and Finley have to decide if they're willing to risk their hearts to have everything they've ever dreamed of.
