Jess O'Connor didn't come to Paris looking for romance. After a surprise layoff and a humiliating breakup, landing a coveted one-year position at the Louvre was supposed to be her fresh start. But before she's even unpacked, a bureaucratic nightmare threatens to send her crawling back home to California.Unless Jess finds a way to secure a long-stay visa, she'll be deported back to the US in 60 days. Her only solution? A wildly reckless, legally-binding marriage of convenience. Enter Theo Fizel, an infuriatingly charming French filmmaker with a Provençal winery he has no interest in running and hopelessly romantic parents who will only let him walk away for "true love." Their arrangement should be simple: a fake engagement, a few convincing family visits, and just enough romance to satisfy the French government. But as stolen weekends at the chateau give way to candlelit dinners and vineyard sunsets, pretending starts to feel dangerously close to the real thing.
