the fake dating au I couldn't stop thinking about :)
Toni gets a message from her close friend Fatin inviting her to a trip to Hawaii. Sounds good if there wouldn't be that one problem. She was supposed to bring her long-term girlfriend she had told her friends about. The problem with that was that Toni hadn't dated since her break up almost four years ago and just told her friends she did to shut them up. So there was no way Toni could bring her girlfriend with her, right? Wrong. Toni didn't believe in miracles but when the ad of a fake partner website came up on her Instagram feed, she felt like she had to rethink that opinion. It couldn't be too difficult pretending to be in a relationship with someone you have just met, could it?

Summer Charade by williamjames3237
11 parts Ongoing
Every summer, Izzy returns to Florida to unwind before heading back to San Diego to continue her work as an ambitious journalist. This year, however, a simple conversation about dating turns her life upside down. After overhearing Izzy about the lack of good men and Luke, a man she knows, arrogantly dismiss women as unrealistic, their meddling mothers make a bet: if the two can fake date for the summer and convince everyone that opposites attract, they'll both get what they want-Izzy, funding for her next big journalism project, and Luke, a coveted internship through his mother's network. Neither can back down from the challenge, but the mutual disdain is palpable. Izzy sees Luke's crass humor and conservative views as everything wrong with society, while Luke finds Izzy's idealism self-righteous and exhausting. As they fake date through awkward family dinners, poolside BBQs, and beach outings, the line between fake and real begins to blur. Beneath his bravado, Izzy discovers a thoughtful, sensitive man unsure of his place in the world, and Luke sees past her activism to the woman grappling with self-doubt and burnout. But when summer comes to an end, misunderstandings and lingering fears threaten to tear them apart, leaving them to question whether the love they've found is real or just another part of the charade. Can they push past their pride and trust in what they've built, or will the bet that brought them together be the very thing that drives them apart? In Summer Charade, two opposites discover that love is messier, more beautiful, and far more real than they ever imagined.
