In the second novel of USA TODAY bestselling author LuAnn McLane’s playful and passionate Heartthrob Series, Oliver Heart—the youngest of the Heartbeat brothers—has big dreams of going solo. But when chasing fame means faking a romance with a female pop star, he discovers that pretending might be more complicated—and more tempting—than he ever imagined.

Once part of the cult-favorite boy band Heartbeat, the Heart brothers are all grown up and fresh off a hit reunion tour. Oliver is ready to step into the spotlight alone, but every rising star needs a publicity boost. Enter Belinda Beal, a former pop sensation whose career needs saving as badly as Oliver’s needs launching. Their plan: stage a fake relationship for the cameras.

They’ve played this game before in their glory days, flashing smiles for the paparazzi while secretly rolling their eyes. But as the charade heats up, so does their undeniable chemistry. Soon, the line between make-believe and reality starts to blur, leaving Oliver to wonder if the romance they’re selling to the public might actually be the real thing.

Packed with humor, music, and irresistible charm, It’s Gotta Be You is a celebrity fake dating romance perfect for fans of boy band nostalgia, pop star love stories, and romantic comedies with plenty of heart.
