The Spanish Love Deception
Synopsis
Catalina Martín has a problem: she needs a date for her sister's wedding in Spain, and the American boyfriend she invented to keep her meddling family — and her smug ex — at bay has become impossible to explain away. With four weeks until the transatlantic trip, she's out of options.
Enter Aaron Blackford, the tall, infuriatingly composed colleague she has spent two years despising. When he unexpectedly volunteers to fly across the ocean and pose as her devoted partner, Catalina can't imagine a worse companion — or, as the wedding draws nearer, a more convincing one. Thrown together under one roof and surrounded by her boisterous family, the line between their office rivalry and something far warmer starts to blur.
The debut novel from Elena Armas and the first book in the Love Deception series, The Spanish Love Deception is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy about the stories we tell ourselves and the one person who sees straight through them.
