Margo Diaz has a reputation as a workaholic. Everyone knows where she eats her lunch- at her desk, and where she spends her Friday nights- at the office. But when her ex-boyfriend announces his engagement to the same woman who broke up their relationship, she finds herself tangled in a lie. Because the only thing worse than working with your ex is telling everyone you have a boyfriend when you don't.
Forced to plan a New Year's gala to impress a client, Margo finds herself promising everyone will meet her plus one. And with her name in the running for a promotion, she really can't screw this up. She has to find a boyfriend, and a twelve-day online blind dating service is just the ticket she needs.
Everything is fine, Margo has a plan. That's until she discovers her blind-date is Richard, the tall, attractive man she bumped into a few weeks ago. Not needing any distractions, she's determined to keep the lie going to show everyone she can have it all- a career, a family, a (fake) boyfriend. Except, Richard isn't what she thought and her attraction for him grows harder to ignore. Yet Margo is committed to keeping herself away.
How will Margo convince everyone she's been dating a man she's never met? Can she risk telling the truth or will she let her lie ruin more than her reputation? With a week left before the gala, the boyfriend countdown is on.
