Hello rock bottom, it’s me, the girl fake dating her brother’s best friend at a family reunion.

When I get tricked into joining a ten-day family trip to Alaska (because Grandma doesn’t take no for an answer), I thought awkward family dinners would be the worst part. That is, until Grandma unveils her pièce de résistance—a suitor she’s handpicked just for me. Spoiler: I’d rather marry a moose.
Enter Max, my brother’s annoyingly charming best friend. His genius solution? Fake dating to dodge Grandma’s matchmaking. Sure, it starts with convincing everyone we’re madly in love, but things take a turn when his smirks start feeling less fake, and my heart decides to join the chaos.
Of course, it’s not that simple—falling for Max means facing my biggest fear: his career. The same dangerous job that took my dad’s life. Can I survive Grandma’s schemes, family shenanigans, and my runaway feelings, or will I end up in the kind of mess not even Max can charm his way out of?

The Perils of Pretending is a sweet romantic comedy packed with love, mischief, and a dash of moose-related drama, proving that the most unexpected relationships might just be the real deal.
