An absolute gem of a romantic comedy that had me hooked from the very first page. Set against the backdrop of a quaint fishing village in Nova Scotia, this story is brimming with charm, humor, and heartwarming moments.
At the center of the tale are Melanie, a Boston fashion influencer, and Evan, a rugged lobster fisherman with a heart of gold. When fate brings them together after a boating accident lands Evan in the hospital, Melanie finds herself swept up in a whirlwind of events as she agrees to pose as Evan's fiancée to help smooth over a family feud.
What follows is a delightful romp filled with mistaken identities, quirky family dynamics, and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. As Melanie and Evan navigate their fake engagement, they discover unexpected connections and undeniable chemistry that slowly blossoms into something real.
I adored the vibrant cast of characters, from Evan's eccentric family members to the colorful residents of the fishing village. Each character added depth and richness to the story, making the setting feel alive and immersive.
