Publisher Description
'I devoured End of Story and adored every page of this hilarious, emotional page-turner' HELENA HUNTING
A sexy, smart and unconventional opposites-attract love story from New York Times bestselling sensation Kylie Scott
When Susie inherits her beloved aunt's house, the last person she expects to help renovate it is Lars - her ex's best friend. The same man who witnessed their humiliating public breakup six months ago. She isn't exactly eager to have anyone around whose alliance is with the enemy but beggars can't be choosers and the sooner the repairs are done, the sooner she can get back to embracing singledom.
Things go from awkward to unbelievable when Lars discovers a divorce certificate hidden in a wall and dated ten years in the future - with both their names on it. It couldn't possibly be real...could it? As Susie and Lars work to unravel the document's origins, the impossibility of a spark between them suddenly doesn't seem so far-fetched. But would a relationship between them be doomed before it's even begun?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
For this fun and raucous rom-com, Scott (Fake) places accessible characters in realistic situations then gilds the whole with just a hint of the fantastic. Fiercely independent, fashion-minded social media manager Susie is still recovering from both a bad breakup and the sudden death of her beloved aunt Susan. While dodging her brother's money-grabbing attempts, Susie gets started on remodeling the house she inherited from Aunt Susan. Unfortunately, the best contractor in Seattle just so happens to be her evil ex's best friend, Lars. While working together on the project, the pair discover a divorce certificate in the walls—with their names on it, dated 10 years in the future. In the process of unraveling the mystery, the pair grow steadily closer, opening up even deeper questions: can new friends sleep together without their hearts getting involved? Then, after feelings inevitably develop, can someone who's sworn off marriage (Susie) make it work with someone who's dreamed of marriage his whole life (Lars)? And is any of it worth it when they already know how things will end? Scott nails the pacing and delivers some delightful comedic moments, but it's her masterfully crafted characters that really set this apart. Both Susie and Lars feel like mature, fully realized people who bring their entire selves and past experiences to their relationship, and the book's focus on how they sort through their differences elevates it to the next level. This strikingly fresh romance is sure to win fans.
