Two journalists who must fake a relationship in order to land a huge story. Bel has just landed a job at the Manchester office of a big national newspaper, coming off the success of her latest award-winning podcast. The team is small, consisting of Bel, her ambitious colleague Aaron, and the new intern. But when the intern turns out to be a thirtysomething man called Connor, she's not impressed. She's patronizing, he's hostile: it's a terrible start. Connor's life is in a state of collapse. He's left his seemingly perfect life in London--a well-paying job, great apartment, and beautiful girlfriend--for a chance to pursue a lifelong dream of becoming a reporter. After a bad first impression with Bel, his internship begins to feel like another in a series of poor decisions. But if Connor were honest with himself, she's the first bit of excitement he's felt in a very long time. When Bel suddenly finds herself at the heels of a huge story, she's determined to see it through-- even if it means involving the inscrutable and aloof Connor. Before they know it, they must convince people they're not just a couple, but a couple madly in love. If they mess up, Bel's cover is blown and the biggest story she'll ever have landed will disappear, along with justice for its sources. But as time goes on, Bel and Connor start to wonder if their cover story is just an act, or if their feelings are real. |

The Eight Heartbreaks of Hanukkah
by Jean Meltzer
Evelyn Schwartz has the perfect Hanukkah planned: eight jam-packed days producing the live-action televised musical of A Christmas Carol. Who needs family when you've got long hours, impossible deadlines, and your dream job? That is, until an accident on set lands her in the medical bay with one of her chronic migraines, and she's shocked to find her ex-husband, David Adler, filling in for the usual studio doctor. It's been two years since David walked away from Evelyn and their life in Manhattan, and his ex-wife is still the same workaholic who puts her career before everything else--especially her health. But when Evelyn begins hallucinating 'ghosts' tied to her past heartbreaks, and every single one leads to David, he finds himself spending much more time with her than he anticipated.
