Beloved author Lily Chu brings the charm in a clever, funny, and beautifully written contemporary romance about a fake heiress, a real secret scandal, and one sizzling summer she’ll never forget.
When a viral fiasco torpedoes event planner Valerie Peng's career, her ultra-wealthy client makes a wild offer: spend the summer at his lakefront estate posing as the long-lost daughter he swears his conniving family hid from him. New wardrobe, new name, new rules—what could go wrong?
Enter Nico Hever, the boss's maddeningly perfect executive assistant. He's organised to a fault, impossible to read, and absolutely the last man Valerie should be noticing—especially since he's the only one who knows she's faking it. But as they navigate sharp-eyed matriarchs, power plays, and private family feuds, the sparks they keep dodging start to look a lot like destiny.
Caught between pretending to belong and finally finding where she fits, Valerie has to decide if she's here to keep a secret…or claim a life (and love) that's all her own.
Mystery and romance abound in this quirky and compelling romantic comedy from Lily Chu, offering the perfect summertime read for fans of contemporary love stories.
