The Fake Play (Boston Bulldogs)

MAYBE SOME RELATIONSHIPS JUST AREN’T MEANT TO BE FAKE

Bree Foutin has had enough. After dealing with a consistent onslaught of questions about her relationship status, she finally snaps and tells her parents what they want to hear. The only issue? She doesn’t actually have a boyfriend.

With no suitable options in her PhD program, she considers telling her parents the truth, potentially making for an awkward Christmas. Little did she know, her neighbor had been listening over her shoulder during another difficult phone call with her Mom.

Enter Boston Bulldogs’ rookie sensation—Carter Johnson. Trying to find his feet in Boston, the last thing he needs is his world turned upside down by a woman he meets in an elevator. But being Bree’s fake boyfriend sounds better than Christmas with his stuck-up parents.

Being a second year PhD student, almost drowning in work, Bree doesn’t have much of a choice. Having probably drank too much coffee, she accepts Carters offer.

The pair spend countless hours together, forming their backstory so her parents don’t see through the lie. Late nights and early morning coffees together. It all feels right.

Suddenly, the relationship might not be as fake as they first thought.
