书籍简介

“美丽、精彩的爱情故事——这是我喜欢的安娜贝尔·莫纳汉小说！” ——Paige Toon，国际畅销书《七个夏天》的作者

***

真实爱情故事的规则：没有。这都是谎言。

简·杰克逊知道真爱是谎言。笑声才是仅有的真相：她青春期时，扮演的是美国第五受欢迎的情景喜剧中那个牙套里涂着烧烤酱的笑柄，如今她仍在努力摆脱这个角色。至少现在她是清水工作室的创意总监，并奉行着一个新的座右铭：假装直到你成功。

只是，她可能伪装得太过了。她急于让自己的头一个项目获得批准，却被自负的摄影师、曾经的暗恋对象丹·芬尼根激怒，张口就撒了一个弥天大谎。她声称时下炙手可热的流行歌星杰克·奎兰答应为剧本创作一曲原创歌曲。杰克可能是她的初吻——也是她超大的耻辱——但简已经二十年没和他说过话了。

现在，简须向她不想欠的男人求助：丹·芬尼根。因为杰克正在丹位于长岛的海滨故乡参加一个音乐节，而丹有他的一套。简觉得，要和丹近距离相处一周，还要直面自己的过去，简直就是地狱，但丹或许会给她一个惊喜。在掩盖谎言的同时，他们能否找到真相？

Rules for a True Love Story: There are none. It's all a lie.

Jane Jackson knows that true love is a lie. Laughter is the only truth: and having spent her adolescence as the barbecue-sauce-in-her-braces punchline on America's fifth-favourite sitcom, she's still trying to shake off that role. At least now she's a Creative Executive at Clearwater Studios and living by a new mantra: fake it till you make it.

Except, she might have faked it too far. Desperate to get her first project greenlit and riled up by pompous cinematographer and one-time crush Dan Finnegan, she opened her mouth and a big fat fib fell out. She claimed that Jack Quinlan, hottest popstar of the moment, has promised to write an original song for the script. Jack may have been her first kiss - and greatest source of shame - but Jane hasn't spoken to him in twenty years.

Now, Jane must turn to the last man she'd ever want to owe: Dan Finnegan. Because Jack is playing a festival in Dan's beach hometown on Long Island, and Dan has an in. A week in close quarters with Dan while facing down her past is Jane's idea of hell, but Dan just might surprise her. While covering up her lie, can they find something true?
