Sweet
Emily Henry · 2023
Harriet and Wyn have been the quintessential couple since college, as perfectly matched as salt and pepper, but five months ago, for reasons they still haven't discussed, they quietly broke up. The problem is they haven't told their best friends, which leads to them sharing a bedroom at the beloved Maine cottage that has hosted their group's annual getaway for a decade. This year is particularly poignant as the cottage is for sale, making this their final week of bliss, wine, and seafood with the people who understand them most.
To avoid breaking their friends' hearts during this last hurrah, Harriet and Wyn agree to play their long-established roles, she as the driven surgical resident and he as the laid-back charmer. However, as they lie through their teeth and navigate the cramped quarters of their shared room, they realize that faking a perfect relationship for a week is nearly impossible when the people watching know them best, and their mutual longing is harder to hide than the cracks in their flawless plan.
