Summary
Lisa’s mum is dying, and she has one last wish: to see her daughter happy and in love. What starts as a harmless favour between friends turns into a full-scale performance, complete with convincing their families, their friends, and everyone else in their orbit that the relationship is real. It should be easy. After all, they’re only pretending.
Falling for each other? That’s definitely not part of the plan.

Summary
The morning after 'the moment' and beyond. Michelle gets the wrong end of the stick and more misunderstanding and misguided matchmaking ensues. There will be your normal 'will they won't they' angst but mostly fluff.
I love Ryan but I wanted to explore having Carla's favourite wing-women with her and what it would look like if Carla was a little more hesitant than she was (for the right reasons). I've also often thought about the 'screens before bed' comment and what Carla may have been googling bless her.
FYI Hayley has risen, Becky has not.
