In the pursuit of acceptance, Bisola Thompson Adebisi has mastered the art of deception. With a thousand false versions of herself scattered among the people she's trying to impress, she's lost sight of her true identity. But when her Nigerian mother threatens to arrange a marriage for her, Bisola finds herself entangled in another web of lies.

Desperate to escape her mother's plans, Bisola turns to Johnson DaSilva, the twin brother of her former love. Johnson, recently returned to Nigeria after years abroad, is caught off guard by Bisola's charms. Her carefree nature and captivating smile had once left him breathless, and now they threaten to consume him again.

However, Johnson's own demons lurk in the shadows. His father's constant pressure and a painful past he's desperate to forget continue to haunt him. As Bisola and Johnson's fake relationship blossoms into real romance, their dark pasts and family secrets threaten to sabotage their love.

Will the sweetness of their passion be enough to overcome the sourness of their pasts, or will the weight of their secrets tear them apart?
