Everyone gets a glow-up on social media, but for Libby Lane, it’s more than filters and cherry-picked content. Her online persona, Lillibet, is the fakest of fakes: the affluent, healthier-than-thou opposite of her glam-free life on the side of Oahu most tourists never see, cooked up by Libby and her best friends under the influence of free wine and career desperation. The phony fronting is all in good fun, until a real influencer stumbles onto the Love, Lillibet Instagram feed and starts making waves.
When Hildy Johnson, the ambitious junior member of a media dynasty, travels to Hawaii to talk to “Lillibet” about parlaying her lifestyle brand into a job, Libby and her friends scramble to take the make-believe to a new level. Complicating the charade even further is Hildy’s handsome companion, a wildlife photographer whose keen eye sees more than he lets on – and Jefferson has Libby directly in his sights. Between the pretend husband, borrowed goats, a made-up holiday, and Libby’s very real attraction to Jefferson, it’s anyone’s guess which lie will blow their cover first … especially since “Lillibet” isn’t the only one with something to hide.
Hate to Fake It to You is a zany modern twist on a screwball comedy classic about figuring out what you really want – by pretending to be someone you’re not.
AMANDA SELLET is a former journalist and the author of romcoms for teens and adults including By the Book, which Booklist described in a starred review as, "impossible to read without laughing out loud." She loves old movies, baked goods, and embarrassing her teen daughter. Hate to Fake It to You is her adult debut.
