Synopsis:
Haley Swann needs a date. Any date to go with her to her best friend’s wedding, where she is the maid of honor and as luck would have it, the best man is her ex-fiance. Flustered while on a call with her mom, she blurts out that she is bringing her new boyfriend to the wedding. There is just one problem–there is no man in sight. The only man that has consistently been in her life for the past three years is her boss. And he is not an option.
Did I mention that her boss is none other than Hollywood royalty, Aidan Stone?
Aidan Stone is facing the consequences of his own actions as a breakup caused him to spiral from America’s Sweetheart to America’s Bad Boy in a matter of months. In an effort to restore his good guy image, he is advised by his publicist to start dating someone else consistently to convince his fans that he is on the straight and narrow. Aidan doesn’t want to fake date just anyone, especially since he’s been burned by an A-list actress and has no intention of dating another one-fake or otherwise–anytime soon. Who can he really trust when his career and let’s face it–his ego–is at stake here? The only woman he has trusted with everything in his life was sitting right there next to him. His trusty assistant of three years, Haley.
The deal is simple: Haley and Aidan will date for two weeks, just until the paparazzi and fans are satisfied and back off and until the wedding is over. Then everything will go back to normal.
Besides, they just need to convince the world that they are madly in love. Easy peasy since Aidan is the most sought out actor on the planet and promises to be there next to Haley every step of the way. If Aidan has learned anything in Hollywood, it’s that appearances are everything…right?
What could possibly go wrong?
Amid “practice” dates, a movie premiere and wedding festivities, Aidan and Haley discover the power of letting go and maybe, just maybe, letting someone back into the depths of their heart is the healing that they desperately need to move on and find true love.
True love that is closer in reach than they realize.
