Can't Help Falling in Love by Sophie Sullivan

Lexi Danbyis doing her best to keep herself from drowning, she's finally seeing a little light at the end of the tunnel.  The last thing she wants is to admit she's failing. When she's faced with whether to admit she's a waitress or pretend to know the random guy at one of her tables,  yep she goes for the lie. And what would hopefully be a shortlived fib snowballs,  of course.

Will Grand is surprised, but not put off by the unfolding events.  He's willing to keep up the farce if it means he actually has a chance to get to know Lexi better.  He sees her strength,  even though she sees only the cracks and the delays.  Now he has to see if he can open her eyes to the person she is, rather than her only seeing herself through the lens of all the losses and hiccups she's had to go through. 

This is an opposites attract and fake relationship trope.
So if that's not your cup of tea,  you probably won't fall in love with the book.
