Synopsis:

This Passover is starting to feel like the ten plagues might be coming back to haunt them before the weekend is over...one hilarious misstep after the next.

Gaby Fineberg just wants to get through Passover Seder without her “well meaning” family playing matchmaker. She needs a date, just for one simple meal—that includes singing, the history of her forefathers, and not one bit of yeast. The hot guy at her gym would be perfect. He probably hates bread, anyway, with a body like that. But when she finally works up the nerve to ask him...he doesn’t hear a word she said.

Levi Miller is deaf and happily single. Initially, he doesn’t know why this beautiful woman is talking to him, but it’s clear she needs help—and suddenly so does he. In a very complicated situation, Levi finds a simple solution. Gaby will pretend to be his new girlfriend to bail him out, and he’ll return the favor. But he didn’t bargain for a family dinner quite like this one...

      

   

*Excerpt*

Suddenly she didn’t want it to be fake. Not anymore. He might be keeping something from her, but he shared easily and willingly, and that had to count for something. Levi stood so near her, thumb rubbing her check, body nearly brushing hers from closeness.

She inched forward, closing the gap, body damn near humming at his proximity. His head shifted toward hers and that was all she needed before lifting on her toes and meshing her lips with his.

He returned her kiss, pressing her against the wall as she flung her arms around him, holding him close. No one could see them, so this wasn’t some chaste-yet-explosive kiss in the middle of the living room. This wasn’t even a show for her family, though the fact they were in the bathroom together wouldn’t be lost by anyone. Gaby didn’t care, not with his hands sprawled on her back, pressing her closer to his hard chest, making her want to lick him—and not like Bengi would.

She shifted even closer, every hard inch of him against her curves, and she plum forgot to breathe. Not with this man against her, his tongue in her mouth, and those hands sliding up the sides of her torso. Just a little higher, and around to the front, and her desperate nipples would be very happy.

Noise came from the hall and Gaby stilled. “Where’d you hide it, Izzy?” said one of her little cousins. “Yeah, tell us!” said another, and the softer voices followed, perhaps telling the kids to stop interrupting the Seder.

The same Seder that Gaby and Levi missed by being lip-locked in the bathroom.

She pulled back, and Levi’s eyes opened, heavy-lidded with lust, and she had to fight not to wrap herself around him again like a pretzel. 

“Sorry,” she started to sign.

He wrapped his hand around hers to stop the motion, yet now his hand was even closer to her breasts, wedged between them, in fact, skin against skin in the V of her dress. Her self-control threatened to break free of her weakening grip, and she knew she had to pull herself together.
