Thank you to the publisher for an advanced copy of Love You, Mean It

A cute rom-com about a woman trying to save her family's deli from wealthy developers bent on gentrifying her neighborhood and bringing a "whole foods" esque supermarket into the area. We've got "While You Were Sleeping" vibes with a fake fiance schtick and amnesia (if you know, you know), opposites attract and fun family dynamics to round everything out.

Ellie Greco has worked for her family-owned deli, aptly named Greco's Deli for her whole life. After a short stint in the city and then the sudden death of her father, she finds herself back home schlepping deli meats, tinned fish, and other necessities for her family and customers. But when a local investor, Theo Taylor, wants to bring a mega store to the area, she decides to confront him and plead her case. Things go from a bad first impression to so much worse when the ceiling of the building they're meeting in caves in and Ellie falsely claims to be Theo's fiance. One hospital visit and a bout of short-term memory loss have these two stuck playing the fake fiance game. Theo's memory loss is shortlived, but he stuns Ellie when he proposes that their fake engagement continue on to manipulate their respective families to get what they want.

A fun rom-com that was a quick read, a great addition to your spring line up.
