     The engagement is fake, but the feelings are real. 
    Gwen Alder is starting over. Divorced and broke, she's come to Billings, Montana for a new beginning. But waitressing at a roadside diner for the summer isn't paying the bills. Heath Montgomery almost has it all—fame, fortune and a mega-watt smile. The one thing he's missing is a date for his cousin's wedding.
    When Gwen and Heath cross paths, Heath has an idea: what if he paid Gwen to be his date? No strings, no complications, just a simple transaction to get his parents off his back about settling down. When the wedding date ruse goes well, Heath asks Gwen to play his fiancé...for an entire weekend.
    They're nothing alike. To them, it's just a business arrangement. They definitely don't plan to fall for each other. But sometimes love has plans of its own.

    The wedding is fake, but the feelings are real.
     
    Molly was abandoned at the altar and has no intention of heading back there anytime soon. When she crosses paths with arrogant fireman Tim, she knows better than to let her heart get involved. A serious journalist working for her family's newspaper, Molly's plan is to focus on her career and her adorable new labrador puppy.
     
    Tim left his own family's newspaper to become a fireman with the Atlanta Fire Department. He watched the media business consume his family and he has no time for journalists, let alone a beautiful and feisty one from his family's rival paper.
     
    When the feud gets even more personal, Molly and Tim have had enough. They hatch a Romeo & Juliet-esque plan to bring peace to their warring families with a fake engagement—and a fake wedding to go with it.
     
    But when their bid to reunite their families backfires, their attraction only grows—and Molly and Tim start to doubt if love truly conquers all.

    The vows were fake, but the feelings are real.
     
    "If we're still single at forty, we'll marry each other."
     
    To most friends it's a joke rather than a promise, but not for former high school sweethearts Rachel and Daniel, who run into each other on a plane to Vegas 20 years later. They bond over their unlucky history in love, and after a night of bad decisions and a trip to the drive-through altar, they end up married.
     
    In the moment, it seems perfect: Rachel has always wanted a family of her own; Daniel is nursing a broken heart after his ex-fiancée called off their wedding at the last minute. But when they wake up the next morning a little less starry eyed, they might just regret their hasty I do's.
     
    The clear thing to do is annul the marriage. Except... posing just seems to fit them. And they may just find that the best love stories happen out of order.
