She's not getting married. She's only engaged!

Marley Roman should have already known that romantic plots hatched with her best friend Dede were doomed. But a fake engagement seemed like the only way for her, as the last old maid in the bunch, to endure her youngest sister's wedding. Armed with a phony ring and a plausible story about a fiancé loosely based on her overly friendly, cowboy–turned–actor neighbour, Brant Westfield, she was ready to face–and fool–her family. But between her ex–boyfriend Richard's unexpected role in the wedding party and Brant's sudden arrival to join the fun, the holes in her plan are growing…and multiplying!

Dear Trish, someday I want to marry you… 

Craig Cadman has proposed to Trish Lowery at least a dozen times. Of course, he started when he was nine and kept at it until her parents moved away when they were both teens. Clearly, she didn't take him seriously. Because now, after ten years, she's back…and engaged to someone else. He has to remember that. Just do the job, help her renovate her gram's Victorian house and keep a professional distance. But Craig can't forget those old feelings. Is working together just stirring up nostalgia…or is this something more?

She's not the kid she used to be…not by a long shot!

She had a crush on him when she was a teen and Roger was in college…and made his life miserable as only the friend of a guy's kid sister can. Years later, Emmy Lou returns to Phoenix, divorced, with an asthmatic little boy at the center of her world.

Grieving the death of his wife, Roger reluctantly asks her for help with his young twins and teen daughter who's proving as difficult to handle as Em used to be. Just as they finally begin to find happiness together, a career move comes between them–because it affects Em's child, whose welfare means more to her than…anything.
