He was hired to be her fake boyfriend... just until HR stops investigating her "relationship with a subordinate."
Marla is a no-nonsense HR supervisor who's tired of dealing with petty office gossip. When rumors spark that she's secretly dating her charming (but harmless) trainee, she decides to shut it down with an outrageous lie:
"I already have a boyfriend. And he works here."
Unfortunately, she points at Rico, the last person she meant to involve-an IT guy who always wears anime socks and once spilled coffee on her resignation letter (long story).
To keep HR off her back, Rico agrees to pretend to be her boyfriend... for a price:
"In exchange, you have to help me get my ex to notice me."
But as they fake hand-holding, lunchtime dates, and chatty elevator rides, the line between pretending and feeling becomes dangerously thin.
Are they still faking it... or have they become almost official?

She was just another student preparing for her board exams, and he was the quiet observer in the library-watching her, admiring her, but never daring to speak. Before he could gather the courage to talk to her, she was gone. Their story never even had a beginning. Years later, fate brought them together again, but not as two strangers in a library.

When unspoken words demand to be heard? With only a week left before she leaves again, will they let this unfinished story fade into nothing... or will fate finally give them a chance?

Not The Plan

But here's the thing: It doesn't feel fake anymore. Not when he looks at me like that. Not when I actually start wanting him to hold my hand. Now I don't know if I'm still trying to get my ex back...
