A fake relationship might save them from their overbearing mothers, but what about their hearts?Ava Monroe has a secret. In her ambitious attempt to recreate the local gift shop passed down to the women in her family for generations, she's put the store far into the red and is now days away from foreclosure. Pride has kept her from asking for help or even confessing her dire situation to those closest to her, most of all her well-meaning but overbearing mother. Brayden Young came to Sunset Ridge to slow down from his hectic lifestyle after a tragic accident last spring and never left. The charming small town has shown him there is more to life than persistent pursuit of wealth and prestige. He's even adopted a dog. Much to his mother's dismay, he has no plans to move back to Texas-or even come home for Christmas. Bonded by their desperate need to avoid their mothers meddling in their lives, Ava and Brayden forge a plan to fake a virtual relationship. A few photos should be enough to get their mothers off their backs. Except, the simple plan turns south when both their mothers announce they're spending Christmas in Alaska. Ava and Brayden have to spend more time together if they're to be convincing, which only blurs the line between what is fake and was it real. Feelings weren't supposed to get involved. Oops.
