Falling in love with your fake fiancé is something that only happens in movies, not in midlife…

Mary Ellen

For eighteen years, Antonio and I have been best friends. We've shared everything: inside jokes, secrets, Cubs tickets, even an address. Everyone thinks that we're secretly in love with each other, but that's ridiculous. I mean sure, Antonio is charming and hot, and we almost kissed that one time, but I'd never do anything to risk our friendship.

Until Antonio pulls a stunt right out of a romcom…

Antonio
When my grandmother was on her death bed, I told a little white lie. I wanted her to die happy, so I told her I was engaged to my beautiful best friend. But Nonna unexpectedly recovered, and now she's coming from Italy to spend Christmas in Chicago with me and my fiancée.

She's on a mission to get us to set a date for the wedding. Now I need to convince my best friend to move into my apartment, sleep in my bed, and pretend to be my fiancée.

I have an ulterior motive though: I want to finally break out of the friend zone and convince Mary Ellen that we have a shot at something better -- love.
