Actress Kara Kensington flies to New Hope, Wisconsin, where she'll spend the winter holidays filming a movie. Her entire career depends on the success of the feel-good story based on her best friend's life. To salvage her strained friendship with Dani, Kara asks the cute guy from the flight to act as her new boyfriend. But the longer she spends with him, the less she's acting.
For Chef Scott Neil, his holidays aren't only about family togetherness. He wants Aunt Shirley and Uncle Ted to retire. When he's asked to fake a relationship with Kara, he agrees. As he gets drawn into Kara's production, he questions what is real and what's just for show. Only a fool would fall in love with America's sweetheart.

Excerpt
“If I stick to the plan…” She sighed. “I’ll be home in time for a festive swim in my pool.”
As the snow piled up outside, he couldn’t imagine outdoor swimming. Of course, she probably had a difficult time appreciating the accumulating snow. “Will your parents miss you?”
“Probably, but they aren’t home either. We haven’t really celebrated both days since my childhood. If I suggested spending the holiday under their roof, I can almost hear their gasps.”
“You’re not sentimental?” He stuffed the last bite of pancake in his mouth.
“I don’t know why I’m being so honest.” She shook her head. “You’re the first person I’ve ever met who doesn’t find the real me boring. I never really understood what people meant about being themselves. On a whim, my mom signed me up as a baby model. She started fielding offers before I could walk. If I’m not acting, I don’t know who I am.”
He swallowed the last bite. Chocolate chips melted on his tongue. “I do.”
She gulped. “You do?”
“The Kara I’ve met is kind and caring.”
“I don’t think many people would agree.”
“Their loss.”
She stood, her chair scraping the linoleum tile. Grabbing both plates, she crossed to the sink and turned on the water. “You want to see if the cottage has any holiday movies or decorations in hiding?”
He nodded and finished his coffee. In a second, she brushed off his words. He wouldn’t rescind the sentiment. Lately, he hadn’t enjoyed much normalcy. How strange to have found the sensation with a celebrity.
