A fake engagement might save them from their overbearing mothers, but what about their hearts?

Ava Monroe has a secret.
In her ambitious attempt to recreate the local gift shop passed down to the women in her family for generations, she’s put the store far into the red and is now days away from foreclosure. Pride has kept her from asking for help or even confessing her dire situation to those closest to her. She has a plan to save the store and can do it on her own.
She’s still not convinced that her duplex neighbor Brayden—too handsome for his own good—didn’t read her final notice letter when their mail was mixed up. Her plan to avoid him was going well until her overbearing mother arrives for a surprise visit.
It’s the only reason she agrees to Brayden’s crazy plan—it might be the only way to save the store without her mother knowing she was so close to failure.
Brayden Young came to Sunset Ridge for a visit last spring and never left. The charming small town has shown him there is more to life than persistent pursuit of wealth and prestige. He’s even adopted a dog. Much to his mother’s dismay, he has no plans to move back to Texas—or even come home for Christmas.
Instead his meddling mother flies to Alaska to spend Christmas with him.
Bonded by their desperate need to avoid their mothers meddling in their lives, Ava and Brayden forge a plan to fake an engagement.
Too bad their plan backfired.
