About the book:

What happens in Vegas, never stays in Vegas…

Waking up in a Las Vegas hotel room with her brother's best friend, and no memory of how she got there, isn't exactly rule-follower Ophelia 'Lee' Turner-Jones' finest moment. She's done her best to forget it ever happened – until a year later, when a surprise email arrives from a wedding chapel. Now Lee needs to track down her lifelong crush… and tell him that they're married.

Adrenaline-seeking Nico has never stayed in one place for long, so Lee is stunned to find him settled in a small town full of loveable eccentrics in Maine. And that's not the only surprise: it turns out Nico is in desperate need of a wife.

Lee could be the answer to all his problems – if he can keep his hands off her. Pretending to be happily married to the man she's secretly in love with while the whole town throws themselves into the charade, might end in disaster. Still, Lee can't help but wonder if this fake marriage could finally be the start of something real.
