Just For the Cameras by Meghan Quinn is a bright, feel good romantic comedy where fake dating quickly turns into something far more complicated and a lot more real. Graydon St. John, a quiet and brooding football player, prefers to stay out of the spotlight. But after a PR disaster, he’s forced into a public campaign that puts him front and center… at a zoo.

Maple Baker, a passionate and slightly chaotic zookeeper, isn’t impressed. Her world revolves around her flamingos, and the last thing she needs is a grumpy athlete disrupting everything.

Paired together for the cameras, they’re expected to play nice and maybe even pretend there’s something more between them. But as the tension builds and their chemistry becomes impossible to ignore, the line between fake and real begins to blur.

Lighthearted, witty, and full of charm, this story delivers humor, heart, and romance in equal measure.
