RushWhen I show up to surprise my boyfriend in a barely-there festive outfit, I'm expecting him to be alone.Not hosting family. His fiancé's family. Down one boyfriend and up a lot of embarrassment, I flee with my tail between my legs. The broken heart will fade. My humiliation, not so much, but my saving grace is the fact that I never have to see either of them ever, ever again. Until I walk into work and come face to face with my new boss. HunterI never, in a million years, would have guessed the man hiding under his desk at work would be the one person I hoped to never see again.My ex-fiancé's side piece. Apparently I can't fire the guy because of personal issues, so I try to play nice, which is a whole lot harder to do when I find out my ex is still texting Rush. The same ex I haven't heard from since I walked out on his begging. Rush tells me he didn't know about me. He tells me there were others. He also tells me our ex still wants him and so, we come up with a plan. To show him what it feels like when you want someone who doesn't want you back. All we need is a camera. His number. And one shared kiss. Revenge has never been sweeter.

KellerBanging my son's bestie was a total accident that will never, ever happen again. I'm sure of it. While he might be gorgeous and caught me in a weak moment, when it comes right down to it, my son has been my entire life for the last twenty-six years. I don't know how to be anything other than his dad. But with Molly heading off to Seattle, he leaves me with a parting gift: Will. His best friend. And my new roommate. Still, I'm determined to focus on my plan of finding someone to settle down with and to start living for me. Then Molly hits me with another gift: he's asked Will to help find me the perfect partner.WillMolly leaving me to run away across the country made one thing very obvious. I crave stability. I crave a life where I get to control what happens to me, without the constant threat of having to move home to my homophobic family. All I need to focus on is work and making enough money for the downpayment on my own place. Except now I'm living in the spare bedroom of the man I've been in love with for years. The same bedroom where we had one very messy, very quick, accidental frot sesh. Now I'm cooking for him every night, and we're working out together every morning. It's all feeling very domestic and my heart can't separate reality from the fantasies in my head. I know I'm going to get hurt. It's only a matter of time. But when it comes to Keller, it's impossible for me to walk away.

FOSTER: "Look out for Zach and don't hit on him."My brother's request sounds easy enough. Keep an eye out for his best friend on campus and keep my hands to myself.Easy.Even if Zach is a quintessential nerd, who I've always thought was cute, I don't have the time to think with my ... stick.There's only one stick I should be focused on this year, and that's my hockey stick. My goal once I graduate is to get an NHL contract.The last thing I need is a distraction. On or off the ice.Only, keeping to the rules is harder than I thought it would be. ZACH: People confuse me.And no one more than Foster Grant.I've barely spoken two words to him in the whole time I've known him, but the second I step foot on campus, he's impossible to shake.I can never anticipate his next move. And whenever we're together, my next move is a total mystery as well.I want to give in to him, but that might mean coming clean about something I've never been bothered about before.I'm still carrying my V-card.And I think it's time to turn it in.

COHEN It turns out making out with my best friend in high school could be considered gay. Who knew? Apparently, everyone but me.Now that it's been pointed out, I can't help reliving it in my head. Repeatedly. Goodbye Denial Town, hello Confusionville.When my path leads me down the gay dating app route, I don't expect to meet anyone I like, but then I meet him.He can't be more opposite than me. He's smart, he hates hockey, and he identifies as demi-something I've never heard of.Yet I can't deny something's there. Something I want to explore in person. If only I could get him to agree. SETH All my life, I've felt broken.Sick of being asked if I could be gay by ex-girlfriends, friends, and even my parents, I join a gay dating app to prove a point.I don't expect to find what's always been missing. A real connection.The problem is, I'm too scared to meet him in person. He's a hockey player, and I fear when he finds out my twin plays for the NHL, I'll be overshadowed by my overachieving brother. Again.Worse yet, what happens if we meet and that connection isn't the same?When I tell him I'm not ready, he's disappointed but supportive. Fate, on the other hand, isn't as accepting.I had no idea the person I've been falling for is someone I already know.

Rowan Five years ago, I ruined the best thing I had in my life and ran. Now, I'm finally back to make things right. I need Circus's forgiveness, and then I can finally move on. I'll leave Sunbury for good this time and never look back. Maybe then I can finally live life as an out gay man-without my family ever finding out. But earning his forgiveness isn't as simple as I hoped it would be. He's going to make me fight for it. And I don't blame him at all. Circus I never wanted or expected to see Rowan Harvey again. When he shows up in Sunbury, begging for forgiveness, I'm tempted to give it to him just so he'll disappear. Instead, we make a deal. I need an extra model for a swimwear shoot, and none of my friends are available or fit the brief.I'll forgive him, if he helps me. Then he has to leave. For good. Because his request for anonymity during the shoot proves he's still living in his dark closet.I'm not going to make the same mistakes I did when I was a teenager. I won't let myself fall for him again. Because after how things ended between us, he doesn't deserve a second chance. Fake Friends is an ex-friends-to-lovers romance with fake boyfriends, second chances, and an all-knowing Magic 8-Ball.

JACOBS: For the last three years, I've lived and breathed hockey with one goal: team captain. There's only one thing standing in my way.TJ Beckett. Beck is irresponsible and immature, and I've hated him since the moment we met freshman year. Yet, the coaches see something in him I obviously can't, and they refuse to choose between us. The captain spot is going to a team vote. And the team thinks that what we need are a bunch of challenges to prove our worth. Challenges that have nothing to do with hockey. Challenges that are throwing me and Beck together. And he's still as infuriating as ever. BECK: I have no idea why Christopher Jacobs hates me, and I can't say I care. I like pushing his buttons, but the guy needs to loosen up. I'm going to win these stupid challenges easily and spend my senior year as hockey king on this campus. Tormenting Jacobs at the same time will just be a bonus. Even if I'm getting confusing feelings toward him, I won't let it hold me back. When it comes to competing, I'm all in, and nothing will get between me and the W.

MOLLYMoving to Seattle is supposed to be all about getting a fresh start and leaving the bitter man I was becoming behind.I have new roommates-quirky, sometimes strange, roommates-a nosy, next door neighbor and a grumpy kitty for company, but even surrounded by people, I still don't feel like I belong. Plus, it turns out the men in Seattle are exactly the same as the ones I left behind, and my string of romantic disconnections continues.It's not until one of my roommates, Seven, hits me with some hard truths that I realize where I was going wrong.Maybe the men aren't the problem.I am.And there's only one way to fix that.SEVENBeing found tied up naked to my bed by my cute new roommate isn't an ideal way for us to start a friendship.But apparently a quid-pro-quo is.He keeps his pretty lips zipped about the compromising position, and I step in as his dating coach. We go out, I note where he's going wrong, and he magically becomes dating material.The problem is, between my codependent brother Xander and a new best friend I can't get rid of, Molly and I are the target of a matchmaking scheme. My life is way too busy to add another person to it, and Molly is the kinda guy who needs to be made a priority, which I just can't do. Xander's medical anxiety takes up too much of my time, and I've never found a partner who doesn't resent it.I'm determined to help Molly find his ever after.But that guy will never be me.

ChristianBeing invited to my cousin's wedding really shouldn't be a big deal except, oh yeah, I haven't seen my family for a decade.My parents turned their backs on me and I've done everything since to become successful and show them what they lost. Only, it's kinda hard to be a success when you're a walking trainwreck.So I'm going to fake it. Hire a guy with an online presence so impressive they'll be desperate to welcome me back into the elitist fold, and roll into the wedding with the kind of confidence I've never felt a day in my life.The plan's a knockout.Until my fake date cancels minutes before the ceremony.ÉmileOne letter from my dearly departed grandfather, and suddenly I'm on a husband hunt.He's reworked his entire will so I'm set to inherit far more than I'm entitled to, and all because he's asked me to use that money for "good."In order to get that inheritance, though, there's one stipulation: marriage.Even with his request, I'm tempted to stick to my original plan of getting as far from my wretched family as possible, and letting them fight it out.But then I run into a tall drink of scattered mess outside of a wedding who's in desperate need of a date, and the pieces click into place.I help him, he helps me.Marriage, money, then go our separate ways.Easy.Now all I have to do is stop myself from actually falling for the guy.
