She came to Rome for gelato and self-pity When Ellie's fiancé ditches her right before the wedding, she takes their nonrefundable honeymoon to Rome alone. But a spectacular mix-up at the hotel leaves her paired with Theo-a maddeningly attractive stranger the staff insists is her new husband. To avoid humiliation (and the relentless couples-only activities), they agree to fake their way through pasta-making classes, Vespa tours, and one unforgettable moonlit dance. What starts as a week of pretending soon spirals into stolen kisses and late-night confessions that feel anything but fake.
Now Ellie has to decide: is this just vacation magic, or has she stumbled into the real happily-ever-after she never saw coming?
