Diner 49er

Divorcée and single mom Emery Cole (50) doesn't have the time or the energy for a man in her life between running her locksmith business, fulfilling her duties as mayor of Willow Run, and avoiding her ex and his new wife. The local matchmakers have other ideas, so pretending to have a boyfriend seems like a good plan—until she falls for the new entrepreneur in town.

New grandpa Titus Franklin (49) is ready for the next chapter in his life, and reopening his late aunt's small-town restaurant feels like the right move. The opportunity for a little romance with his locksmith is too good to pass up as well. When she suggests a fake-dating deal, he's happy to seal the deal with a kiss and a homecooked meal.

Will the prospect of a convoluted blended family keep her from trusting in their happily-ever-after?
