“To have and to hold, in sickness and in health.”

“I can't do this alone.”

Russ Callaghan knew he was going to struggle after his wife’s death.

He just never realized how much. As a single dad, he’s tried to balance

paying the bills with making time for his son, Ryan. He’s been treading

water for a long time and right now, his best friend, Jake, is the only

thing keeping him afloat. But when his son needs major surgery, Russ

isn’t sure anyone can save him from going under.

“I’d do anything for you. You know that.”

Jake Larson has been in love with Russ since college, but he knows

they’ll never be more than friends. Even so, he can’t seem to stop

himself from coming to Russ’ rescue. With Russ facing bankruptcy thanks

to his terrible insurance, Jake concocts his most desperate plan yet: A

sham marriage to get Ryan on his policy.

“You’re the only thing that feels real to me right now.”

It was supposed to be temporary, but when an insurance agent

questions the validity of their marriage, Russ and Jake are forced to

get a whole lot closer. Jake knows that once their time is up, they’ll

go back to being friends regardless of what they’ve shared. But after

having Jake as a partner both physically and emotionally, Russ isn’t

ready to let go. Can they manage to turn their fake marriage into

something real?
