In the charming historic square of Fox Hollow, Kentucky, bakery owner Sophie Callahan has finally found home after escaping big-city burnout.
When Mayor Grayson Caldwell’s slick, developer-backed opponent attacks his bachelor status as a “family values” liability, he makes Sophie a desperate proposal: pose as his fiancée through the election. In return, he’ll replace her dying commercial oven — the one threat that could close Sweet Mercy for good.
Sophie tells herself it’s purely business. A temporary shield for the town she loves and the only way to keep her dream alive.
But fake dates have a way of feeling real.
As they stroll hand-in-hand past the courthouse dome, share stolen moments on her balcony, and stand together against sabotage and vicious rumors, the guarded mayor’s quiet protectiveness chips away at Sophie’s walls — and her sunny resilience slowly thaws the man who’s spent years married only to his duties.
