The Thistlecroft Series

A lie to silence the town. A love she never saw coming . . .

Olivia Bennett's perfectly ordered life falls apart the day she tells the town's biggest gossips that she's engaged. What started as a desperate attempt to silence the rumor mill turns into a full-blown village obsession . . . complete with congratulations cards, nosy neighbors, and a mother who's beside herself with joy.

Enter Jessie Torres, the bold, infuriating cafe owner across the street who offers to play the part of Olivia's mysterious fiancée. What's the worst that could happen? Aside from small-town chaos, meddling locals, and a growing sense that the line between fake and real is vanishing by the day.

As lies spiral into laughter, late-night confessions, and something suspiciously close to love, Olivia must decide whether to keep pretending . . . or finally tell the truth about the one woman who's turned her world upside down.

A slow-burn sapphic rom-com about unexpected love, second chances, and the sweetest lie ever told.

Contains mature themes.
