Two people secretly falling for each other online finally meet in real life.
Megan Mercer came to Giverny for the flowers, not for feelings.
But when she meets Noah Sinclair among Monet's gardens, neither of them expects the connection that follows.
What Megan doesn't know is that Noah already knows her. She's the anonymous woman he's been messaging for years, and he's the man on the other side of the screen.
Before Noah can figure out how to tell her, pressure around the dating-app launch puts them at the center of the campaign: a staged fake-dating photo shoot across Paris designed to prove that authentic chemistry can't be manufactured.
As playful poses give way to lingering glances and increasingly real moments, Noah's secret becomes harder to keep. Telling Megan could destroy the trust growing between them. Staying silent could cost him something even greater.
And Megan must decide whether the safest way to protect her heart is to hold on to the connection she already trusts, or risk wanting something real with the man standing right in front of her.
Set against the cafés, gardens, and moonlit streets of Paris, Braided Roses is a clean, closed-door contemporary romance filled with hidden identity, workplace chemistry, fake dating, slow-burn yearning, an observant hero who falls first, female friendship, and a deeply earned happily-ever-after.
Perfect for readers who love romantic European settings, competent heroines, emotionally safe heroes, and love stories where intimacy grows through trust, patience, and the courage to be known.
✨ A contemporary Paris slow-burn romance about grief, trust, and what happens when protecting your heart becomes more dangerous than letting yourself want again.
