When Cleo's perfect life implodes after a sudden breakup, she hatches a plan to win back her ex by fake-dating the notorious heartthrob in her new apartment building - except the scheme gets complicated when real feelings and mysterious warnings threaten to derail everything.
***
Cleo Cassidy's world shatters when her childhood sweetheart unexpectedly breaks up with her, leaving her to rebuild her life from scratch. She's on the hunt for a new apartment, actual friends, and - most importantly - a way to win back her ex. Enter the hot stranger she keeps bumping into in her new apartment building.
The plan? Simple: fake-date the infamous ladies' man to make her ex jealous. How hard could it be?
Step One: Find a cheap new apartment.
Luckily, the one Cleo finds comes with new friends built into the deal, and...some other mysteries. Like, who the hell is the woman that keeps vandalising the bathroom, warning women everywhere to steer clear of the so-called Penthouse Prick?
Step Two: Make ex-boyfriend jealous using fake boyfriend.
Step Three (VERY important): Don't fall for the fake boyfriend.
But as Cleo continues to learn to live without her ex, she realizes that the line between lying and loving is blurrier than she ever realized.
