A fake engagement. A not-so-pretend kiss. And a lifelong friendship on the line....

CeCe Dupree has always played it safe. She's happiest running her small-town café, curling up with her cat, and binge-watching Star Trek reruns. Love? That's best left to the movies.

But when her childhood best friend—turned Hollywood heartthrob—Jayce Hunt shows up on her doorstep with an outrageous request, her quiet world flips upside down. Pretend to be his fiancée. Just for the cameras.

Only... nothing about it feels pretend. Not the way his hand lingers in hers. Not the almost-kisses that leave her breathless. Not the spine-tingling chemistry she's trying hard to ignore. Suddenly, the line between best friends and something much more is dangerously blurred.

For Jayce, one white lie was supposed to save his co-star. Instead, it might cost him the only woman he's ever loved.

Meanwhile, Abigail Preston's picture-perfect wedding faces an unexpected threat when the past collides with the future she's fought so hard to protect.

Full of swoon-worthy romance, heart-tugging twists, and small-town charm, The Uncomplicated Café is a story about friendship, found family, and the power of second chances.
