Dream job. Dream house. Fake fiancé.

A year in a gorgeous Italian castle...

When Anna Roberts' life implodes, an online search leads her to an ad for the ultimate dream job - management of a gorgeous castle on the shores of Lake Como, accommodation included. The only catch? Anna can't do it alone...

... With the last man on earth she'd choose!

The castle owners will only accept a couple as caretakers, which means Anna needs a man on her arm at the interview. Enter her neighbour, Jake Tucker. Though Anna and Jake have never seen eye-to-eye, Jake's had a rough few years and an escape to Italy sounds ideal. Yet, when they get the job and jet off, Anna and Jake face an unexpected challenge. Pretending to be a couple is difficult... but pretending the tension simmering between them doesn't exist is quickly proving impossible!
