Acting Merry

Rule number one of Christmas cabin trips? Don’t show up single when your friend brings her new boyfriend--especially when he happens to be your ex.

Rule number two? If you’re about to break rule one...bring a fake boyfriend.

Which is exactly how Reese Cameron ends up with Cole Bradley. He may be a contractor rather than an actor, but he’s convincing enough at the boyfriend gig to make her wonder if it’s really all an act.

But Cole has a strict two-date policy, and Reese’s heart isn’t built for casual. Which means she’s in danger of forgetting the most important rule of all: fake boyfriends don’t last past Christmas.
