Noah Malone is back in his hometown for a short break from his stunt work, but his mother's set on convincing him to settle down in Green Valley so he can give her grandbabies like the good Lord intended. Not only is she pushing him to help out at the Donner Bakery decorating cookies, but her matchmaking is relentless.
To end his mother's awkward set-ups, Noah needs a no-strings-attached pretend girlfriend. And who better than Carla, a mysterious recluse who seems to have taken an instant dislike to him? When she reveals she's been isolated by illness, he proposes a fake relationship that'll stop his momma's shenanigans and help Carla ease back into the world.
Tech-geek Carla creates a spreadsheet of fake-date challenges. She's serious and focused on her goal of slowly becoming more social... until daredevil Noah starts messing with her spreadsheet. He's ridiculously charming, and his sexy additions may be even more appealing than the cookies he brings her, but Carla won't let her resistance crumble.
Opposites may attract, but can such different people find a recipe for love?
