If you can't stand the heat, get out of the wedding! From New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Rowe comes a hilarious and smart romantic comedy featuring a high-stakes fake engagement between a sassy wedding planner committed to being single and her reclusive, widowed landlord whose shadowy cop past makes him the worst possible match for her. Three-time runaway bride Piper Townsend believes in four things: her friends, her career, staying single, and fulfilling the promise she made to her mom before she passed away. But when a series of wedding mishaps turns Piper into the viral hashtag of #weddingkillerpiper, she must resurrect her reputation before she loses all she's fought for. The solution? A high-profile fake engagement to her grumpy, anti-social, deliciously hot landlord. Declan Jones buried his heart three years ago, along with a secret that still haunts him. All he wants is his sledgehammer, his privacy, and his job back. Dating? Never. Romance? Forget it. His sassy, sparkly tenant? She's the one breath of sunshine in his life...not that he'd ever admit it. When Piper proposes a fake engagement, it's the solution Declan needs. But can he fake-date Piper, kiss her senseless, "accidentally" get caught in bed with her, and still keep his heart in lockdown? Of course he can. He's an ex-cop. He can handle the heat. Or can he?
