   Summary

   When Valentina decides John Walker needs an image makeover, the last thing he expects is to wake up trending under hashtags with Bob, cast as his fake boyfriend. Now, between PR chaos, Christmas decorations, and way too many pancakes, John has to survive the biggest mission of his life: pretending to be in love...

    

   ... and the second most important: not to actually fall in love.
