The Wedding Date Mistake

💒 She needed a date. He needed a favor. Nobody planned on the rest of it.

Jess has exactly fourteen days before her ex-fiancé's wedding — the wedding that was supposed to be hers — and a plus-one slot she cannot, under any circumstances, leave empty. The solution she lands on is simple, sensible, and entirely under control: ask her brother's best friend to come along, pretend for a weekend, and walk away with her dignity intact.

What could possibly go wrong.

The problem is Nick. Specifically, the way he takes the whole thing far too seriously — remembering the details, saying the right things at the right moments, looking at her in a way that is completely unnecessary for a man who is supposed to be acting. The arrangement has exactly one rule: keep it convincing for the weekend, then go back to being people who barely notice each other.

Jess is very good at rules. She has always been very good at rules. She is significantly less good, it turns out, at following them when Nick is standing that close.

"The fake hand-holding was a mistake. The fake laughing was a mistake. The moment she stopped pretending to enjoy herself and just — did — was the biggest mistake of all."

The Wedding Date Mistake is a sharp, funny, wonderfully warm romantic comedy about the lie that gets out of hand, the friendship that was always something more, and the one weekend that changes everything. It's a story full of terrible speeches, open bars, awkward family dinners, and two people slowly realising that the most inconvenient feelings are always the most honest ones.

The fake relationship. The real problem. The ending nobody saw coming — except, maybe, everyone except them.
