A Marie Claire Book Club Pick!Even with a step-by-step plan, these fake fiancés might accidentally fall for each other in this hilarious, heartfelt romantic comedy from the author of The Marriage Game. Daisy Patel is a software engineer who understands lists and logic better than bosses and boyfriends. With her life all planned out, and no interest in love, the one thing she can't give her family is the marriage they expect. Left with few options, she asks her childhood crush to be her decoy fiancé. Liam Murphy is a venture capitalist with something to prove. When he learns that his inheritance is contingent on being married, he realizes his best friend's little sister has the perfect solution to his problem. A marriage of convenience will get Daisy's matchmaking relatives off her back and fulfill the terms of his late grandfather's will. If only he hadn’t broken her tender teenage heart nine years ago… Sparks fly when Daisy and Liam go on a series of dates to legitimize their fake relationship. Too late, they realize that very little is convenient about their arrangement. History and chemistry aren't about to follow the rules of this engagement.

"If you were stood up for a date, especially your Senior Prom, would you ever talk to that person again?<br/><br/>It’s been 10 years since Daisy was stood up by Liam to her Senior prom! She has not seen him since, until one day at a work conference he bumps into her. She She basically told him to go to hell...I mean he did stand her up for one of the biggest moments in your life!<br/><br/>Liam, a player, had his reasons for standing Daisy up but he couldn’t let her know the truth. His grandfather passed away and in his will he left Liam the families whiskey distillery...but only if he married before his next birthday, in 2 months!! <br/><br/>Daisy, whom approaching 30 and is an Indian, her family was desperate to find her a husband. Daisy being career driven didn’t want any type of commitment. <br/><br/>Liam pops back up to Daisy’s work and proposes to her and began working his pitch that it would be a fake marriage and could benefit them both. Daisy agreed and went to work on their dating plan. <br/><br/>Will this marriage of convenience take place and will they be able to follow the rigid dating plan?<br/><br/>Cute fake marriage trope. I enjoyed reading more about the Indian culture and all the food!! I love Indian food, but don’t get a chance to eat it nearly enough."
