A feud turns into a family-sized matchmaking problem

Madeline and Cooper’s rivalry began with a school-play casting decision and grew through escalating pranks. After their single parents hit it off, the teens strike a truce and pose as a couple to discourage the new connection. That setup gives the contemporary YA romance two intertwined complications: the effort to manage their parents’ courtship and the growing discovery that their own antagonism may not tell the whole story. The premise pairs fake dating with a reversal of the familiar parent-matchmaking setup, while keeping the conflict rooted in choices the teens themselves have made.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in contemporary romance.
  • Readers who enjoy fake-dating premises and rivals-to-romance setups.
  • Those looking for a YA romantic comedy involving family relationships and school rivalry.

Book overview

In this reverse Parent Trap, two feuding teenagers pretend to be in love to keep their parents apart, but love has other plans. A clean YA rom-com from USA Today best-selling author, Janette Rallison.

Madeline and Cooper have had bad blood since junior year when she beat out his sister for the lead in the school play. Ever since, it's been one petty escalation after another--plastic-wrapped cars, glitter bombs, and even a derogatory viral video. When their latest prank lands them in the principal's office with their single parents in tow, Madeline and Cooper are shocked to find that their parents have hit it off and now have plans for a dinner date.

Horrified by the prospect of their parents falling in love, Madeline and Cooper reach a truce. To keep their parents apart, they'll pretend their feud is over and that they're in a relationship. They're positive that by fake dating, their parents will realize their relationship is a terrible idea and stop seeing each other. But the longer their fake relationship continues, the more they discover that there may be things they actually like about each other. How long are Madeline and Cooper willing to keep up the ruse before they have to face the consequences of their actions?
