by Penelope Knayme (Author)
When two friends find themselves starting over in their thirties, they agree to split a mortgage and return to their coastal college town. It doesn't take long before they learn about the residents of Pineapple Court's notorious parties-and they really want in. To gain access, they devise a risky plan: play the part of a happily married couple, and swing into action.
It should be simple, except the longer they pretend to "play house," the harder it becomes to ignore the chemistry they've spent years denying. What starts as a game of appearances quickly turns into desire, revelations, and a chance to embrace the lives they've been too afraid to live.
Because pretending was never enough, and maybe the only way forward is to take the leap and live authentically.
