The woman he was arranged to marry was beautiful, elegant, and smart. He realized it might not be so bad to marry someone like her. But things took a quick turn when the woman's uncle appeared before his eyes... Feron Alarik Zakirova. He was tall, blond, masculine, handsome, and incredibly smart. Hugo instantly had a crush on him at first sight... No, it was something deeper. Because the moment he saw him, Hugo almost forgot that he was arranged to tie the know with Feron's niece.

Almost was never enough. The most is where it all lies; the second is no different from losers. If you want to be chosen, be the best among the options-a sweet rule to every test, a bitter reality Eiah was raised in. She gives everything a hard try, even though she can't grasp it all just right. Maybe she was chasing the wrong things. Maybe she needs to work harder. Maybe she's really... almost there. Whatever it is, she's determined to prove her father she's worthy of her name-but heck, not to the point of marriage! That's why, when he demanded that she get engaged while still in college, she had to 'call a friend', Chase, an accounting junior who has kissed girls everywhere. They had to level up their call sign. From bes to babe, will fake couple rings work? Or was it, again, just another almost? Almost the right move; apparently not the best. Maybe they should've just sat with their friendship bracelets rather than become almost too-almost what they aren't meant to be, almost everything they could no longer be.
