When a wary rock star and a cynical reporter fake date to bury a scandalous rumor, will true love be exposed as the real story?

Nick: I do my best songwriting while playing my guitar on the fire escape. Unfortunately, my in-bed-at-ten next-door neighbor, Maddie, is not a fan of my music. She clambers out on the fire escape to yell at me about making "noise." In bunny slippers, no less. But then she trips and falls into my arms.

That photo of Maddie plastered all over me hits the papers, just as my dream recording company wants to sign my band. Which is a problem, because an obsessed fan is claiming that I'm her boyfriend and now the media is blowing up that I'm two-timing them both. Good-bye recording contract, unless....

Maddie: I'm supposed to cover the story. Not be the story! But when Nick begs me to fake date, I can't resist the chance to be Nick's girlfriend-even if fake-the opposite of my life as a city desk reporter. But my ex said I'm a terrible kisser, and there's no way I want Mr. Hot Rock Star saying the same thing. Hence, clause 11 in our contract: There will be absolutely no physical contact.

Nick: When Maddie receives a threatening photo of the two of us with an X over her face, my desire to protect her suddenly feels all too real. It's either a troll or her undercover investigation has been compromised. With both our careers at stake, is breaking up-so Maddie can return to being safe behind-the-scenes-the only solution?
