They were never supposed to meet. She was in Vegas for her best friend’s bachelorette weekend, still reeling from a broken engagement. He was there for a podcast award, half-distracted by old wounds and too many drinks. One spontaneous night, one Elvis impersonator, and one very real marriage certificate later, Olivia Hart and Cameron Wilder wake up married—and definitely not ready to face it.

Determined to avoid a media scandal, Cameron proposes a short-term arrangement: play the happy couple until the dust settles, then quietly walk away. Olivia agrees, with one condition—no strings, no feelings, no falling in love.

But fake smiles turn into late-night conversations. Shared routines morph into stolen glances. And pretending gets a whole lot harder when real emotions begin to surface.

As the annulment deadline looms and past fears creep in, Olivia must decide if this unexpected mistake could be the beginning of something extraordinary—or just another heartbreak waiting to happen.

What if the best kind of love… starts with a little chaos?
