Love You, Mean It
Ellie Greco gave up her costume design dreams years ago to keep her late father's deli alive, and now the building's landlords are ready to lease the space to a massive box store that could put her out of business for good.
When a falling ceiling leaves Ellie with amnesia and the sudden conviction that Theo — the landlord's son — is her fiancé, neither of them corrects the record, since staying "engaged" gives Theo leverage to preserve the historic buildings he loves and keeps Ellie's deli standing.
The fake engagement is working right up until Theo's ex-fiancée reappears and threatens to unravel everything they've built.
Jilly Gagnon delivers an enemies-to-lovers, fake-dating rom-com about saving a hometown deli and falling for the landlord's son along the way.
