From Little Stack
Emily Henry quickly became one of the most beloved romance authors of the 2020s thanks to her deftly layered and thoroughly relatable contemporary love stories about modern relationships and their many pitfalls.
Everyone knows Harriet and Wyn are the perfect couple. But they've secretly broken up and are hiding the news from their friends. They don't want to spoil their last-ever Summer get-together at their favorite cottage, so they've decided to pretend to still be together for one week and then let everyone know the truth. It's awkward as all hell for Harriet and Wyn, but pretending to be in love also reminds them of why they were together in the first place. How long can they fake it, and is it possible that it will stop being fake?
A couple who broke up months ago pretend to still be together for their annual weeklong vacation with their best friends in this glittering and wise new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Henry.
Harriet and Wyn have been the perfect couple since they met in college—they go together like salt and pepper, honey and tea, lobster and rolls. Except, now—for reasons they’re still not discussing—they don’t.
They broke up five months ago. And still haven’t told their best friends.
Which is how they find themselves sharing a bedroom at the Maine cottage that has been their friend group’s yearly getaway for the last decade. Their annual respite from the world, where for one vibrant, blissful week they leave behind their daily lives; have copious amounts of cheese, wine, and seafood; and soak up the salty coastal air with the people who understand them most.
Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth while trying not to notice how desperately they still want each other. Because the cottage is for sale and this is the last week they’ll all have together in this place. They can’t stand to break their friends’ hearts, and so they’ll play their parts. Harriet will be the driven surgical resident who never starts a fight, and Wyn will be the laid-back charmer who never lets the cracks show. It’s a flawless plan (if you look at it from a great distance and through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses). After years of being in love, how hard can it be to fake it for one week…in front of those who know you best?
