The Heart's Contract

When small-town café owner Aira Blake finds herself caught in a web of her mother’s well-meaning lies, she has no choice but to find a fake boyfriend—fast. With her family’s annual Founders’ Day dinner just around the corner, all eyes will be on her and the mysterious man her mother claimed she's been dating.



Enter Imran Carter—an old college acquaintance with a dazzling smile, a sharp wit, and a knack for appearing when Aira least expects him. What starts as a harmless weekend charade quickly turns into something more complicated when feelings begin to blur the lines of their pretend relationship.



Between heartwarming family chaos, cozy café conversations, and the charm of a town that never forgets, Aira and Imran must decide if love can grow from something that started out as just for show.



Will they walk away once the weekend ends, or will pretending lead them to something real?
