Noelle Winter has always been the black sheep in her family. Being the only child born mysteriously with white hair promised her a life of being the odd one out, so the moment she graduated from uni, she left her family behind for a new life across the world on Mt. Komorebi. She's miraculously avoided every judgment-filled holiday gathering each year, but this year, her family has decided to come to her and there's no way Noelle can avoid it.

​

     Knowing her lifestyle will be a disappointment to her parents, she's prepared to do whatever it takes to keep them from wanting to drag her back to Willow Creek, even if it means hiring a fake boyfriend for the holidays.

​

     Makato "Mako" Tanaka is top-rated on SimDa for his dating services. For a price, he will be your last-minute date to a wedding, pose as your date in a "chance encounter" with your ex, or whatever scheme you can cook up. But no job has ever been as wild or as pricey as what Noelle offers him. Pretending to be her successful boyfriend for a month to impress her nosy family sounds like an easy way to get a hell of a payday.

​

     But for this plan to end successfully, there are rules that have to be followed.

1. Payment must be complete within 30 days after end of contract.

2. Relationships must be believable.

3. Absolutely, under no circumstances are there feelings involved.

​

     This holiday season, Noelle and Mako will find out that some rules are made to be broken.
