Could things get any worse?Picture recently unemployed, apartment flooding to the point of evacuation, and the cherry on top? Running smack right into Mr. Stick-Up-His-You-Know-What, Calvin Rhodes, My brother's uptight, pompous college best friend.I was more than happy to keep my distance from him, but when a week-long, all-expenses-paid trip to Algarve, Portugal, was offered to me, I was in no position to say no. The only catch? I’d have to pretend to be Calvin’s girlfriend and attend a wedding with him. Surely tolerating Calvin for a week is doable…

Well, shit.
After being blind-sided by my ex when she pulled the plug on our relationship, I was in deep denial, and with a mutual friend's wedding that we were both part of coming up, I’m desperate for a date to help me save face.Enter Nikita Da Silva - my buddy’s younger sister who can only be described as chaos personified and the thorn in my side since day one.The suggestion for Nikita to be my fake girlfriend was laughable, but since I was running out of time and options, this seemed like the best one. She could be the buffer I needed to shield myself from the emotional clutches of my ex. The only issue in this otherwise fool-proof plan was having to endure Nikita’s presence for a whole week.
What could go wrong?
