May was thriving in single life, in her own slightly chaotic way.
Her ex-boyfriend, Landon, was old news. Long buried under the everyday disasters of twenty-something life, like overdue bills, bad decisions, and pretending she had everything under control.
Then, one late-night moment of weakness, she made the digital equivalent of peeking through a window.
In her defense, she only meant to scroll. Just a harmless little visit to Landon's Instagram. But harmless turns humiliating when she accidentally likes one of his posts.
To cover up the ultimate cringe, May spins a lie the next day when she runs into Landon at work: she has a boyfriend who's basically the Gordon Ramsay of the coffee world. ☕
Except she doesn't. Not even close.
But when Landon shows up at her favorite cafe, she panics and improvises, pointing at a clueless barista and calling him her "boyfriend." 😫
Now May is trapped in a web of lies bigger than her Instagram feed - a fake boyfriend, a charming ex who doesn't know the truth, and a cafe guy who has no idea he's part of this disaster. 😅
