[Astrophile Series #1]
Jason Coleman's life is in crisis. After losing his job, he is forced to rent out his one-bedroom apartment in Boston as an emergency source of income. Now without a roof over his head, Jason turns to his best friend Sam for help, and ends up crashing at his place while Sam is away on a business trip. The last thing Jason expects to find on his first week back in New York City is a girl crying on the couch, especially when he realizes that the girl is in fact Matahari Myers, Sam's sister.
Matahari "Tari" Myers can only think of seeking refuge in her brother's apartment after she caught her (ex) boyfriend cheating on her with her (ex) roommate. With her heart in pieces, Tari doesn't care if anyone sees her bailing her eyes out like an insane lady, even if that anyone is none other than her brother's best friend, Jason Coleman.
When Jason poses as her new boyfriend in front of Tari's ex, a deal is struck between the two of them. Playing pretend surely is nice, but as they spend more time around each other, the line between what is real and not are starting to become blurry.
Two people, two hearts, and one charade. Whatever could go wrong?
