Charlie Newberg is sure about one thing: Nicole Lemaire is the woman God wants him to marry. There's a slight problem, though—he's already left her once. The day before their wedding. To make a documentary. But he's got a plan. The marketing firm she works for is the ideal choice for promoting his new film. Collaborating will give him the perfect chance to propose again, so he conspires with her boss to make sure she runs the campaign for the same kind of documentary Charlie left her—basically at the altar—for. Despite Nicole's resistance, the two work well together. But Charlie's going to need more than teamwork to convince the jilted bride to give him a second chance. In fact, he might need to fall in love in a way he's never really understood.

Until her groom-to-be deserts her. Now she's still got the house, but the perfect fiancé? Well, he's gone and left her right before they're supposed to star in One Step at a Time, the hit home renovation reality show. The show that surprises newlyweds with their dream home has chosen Callie's house as their new fixer-upper, and when they find out that Callie's fiancé just stood her up? Well, apparently her heartbreak makes for good TV. Faced with that sort of national humiliation, is it any wonder when Callie takes the show's hottie star up on his offer to take over the role of fiancé? She's not quite sure what's in it for him, but what does it matter? He's only a placeholder until her ex comes to his senses...right? So then, why does playing make believe feel so real? And why does he keep kissing her even when the cameras are off?

Donnell engages gender theory and cultural studies in order to shed light on cross-dressing- a common though poorly understood practice- in plays performed in Spain and Colonial Spanish America during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The author shows how certain naturalized assumptions about masculinity and femininity are unmasked through the cross-dressed performance of works attributed to Lope de Rueda, Morales, Lope de Vega, Monroy y Silva, and Calderon.

I never felt truly desired by a man—until him. The second he stepped foot into my small town Alaskan inn, his gaze swept over my curvy figure with desire, igniting a flame I thought was dead. He flirted with me, and I might’ve left two chocolates on his pillow at turndown, but that’s where it stayed. Over the years, he’s floated in and out of town while a friendship developed between us. It’s probably for the best because I’m not a one-night stand kind of woman. Which is funny because when he propositions me to be his fake fiancé in order to end a family feud, it turns out I am the kind of woman willing to pretend to be the one he’s in love with.
