The Match Faker

He's not her perfect match, but he might be perfect for her.



Jasmine Palmer is looking for love, but only if it comes with stability. Unfortunately, stability comes with f*ckbois and after one dumps her via text, Jasmine hires a professional matchmaking company, with a 99% successful matching algorithm, to be her Cupid. But her perfect match, "Nick" is a bartender with a bad case of Peter Pan Syndrome. He's not stable boyfriend material, but she decides to cut her losses and asks him to help her save face at her now engaged ex's party. It's a harmless, one-time arrangement. It won't hurt anyone.



This isn't the first time Nick Scott has followed a beautiful woman with a dubious scheme. So, when a random bar patron asks him to be her pretend boyfriend (because she made the mistake of working with her ex and his parents) he figures he's done a lot worse for way less. A night of rubbing elbows with Toronto's elite is a nice change from cleaning puke off the bar's floors and trying (and failing) to win his dad's approval. They even have a pretty cool time...and a really hot kiss, so when Jasmine offers to repay the favour, he cashes in ASAP.



Prim and proper Jasmine is his key to a harmless ruse to get him the loan he needs to buy his bar. He thinks they're partners in dating fraud, until he realizes Jasmine thinks he's actually a different Nick. If he reveals the truth, she'll think he purposefully misled her, pull out of their deal, and he'll lose his loan. But he soon realizes losing her might be worse than his livelihood.



Either love or science will prevail when these two mis-matches redefine what it means to be a perfect match.
