Sloane Parker, a 22 years old Columbia Law senior, has a five-year plan that does not include billionaires or babies. She wasn't supposed to be at the Hamptons party at all. Sterling Vance, 26 years old, heir to the Vance Hotels, throws a party every night because his glass Tribeca penthouse is too big and too empty to be alone in. Cold, nonchalant, and handsome in a way that makes everyone stare, he has learned to treat everything like business. They meet hiding from the same party on a second-floor balcony. One conversation. Three hours. One sober, mutual choice they both knew they shouldn't make. Four weeks later, Sloane gets three positive tests in the law library bathroom. At the same time, a video of her at the party reaches her retired judge father and Sterling's family. Facing a crucial IPO, Sterling's parents propose a solution: a one-year contractual marriage. Sloane will live in the penthouse, attend galas, and finish law school. In exchange, the baby receives a trust and her tuition is paid. No feelings. No complications. Separate rooms. Sterling agrees. Efficient. Business-like and cold. But Sterling's best friend and houseguest, Kevin Park has another idea: "What if I marry Maya too so they aren't alone?" So now it's two fake marriages. Four people. One penthouse. Sloane is fake married to a billionaire who pretends he doesn't care. Maya, her cousin and room mate, is fake married to Kevin, who cares too much. With Fridge Rules in glitter marker, 2 AM pickle cravings, and a baby on the way, the question becomes whether a year of faking it is enough to make it real.
