Marisol “Mari” Dela Cruz has a food truck, a corgi, and exactly $212 to her name. Then she loses her temper at a rude stranger who insulted her adobo, and the video hits 20 million views overnight. The stranger is Julian Hart, heir to a hotel empire and “America’s most boring CEO.” His board is panicking. The internet is shipping them. His fix is a 90-day fake relationship in exchange for $50,000. Mari says yes, because the bank is about to repossess her truck. The only rule is don’t fall for each other, but the comment section has other plans.

Jo Marlowe has two rules: win the Harlan Cup moot court competition, and never, ever lose to Theo Vale. Then the faculty pairs them as partners. Now she has to spend every night in a locked library study room with the one man who has ruined her curve, her pride, and her sleep. And she has a secret: she’s the anonymous blogger who has been roasting him online for a year. What she doesn’t know is that his favorite commenter, the one who flirts with her every night under a fake name, is Theo himself. The rules say partners can’t date. The evidence says they’re already guilty.
