Summary | "Miz doesn't "do" marriage. Her parents have been separated for decades and half the weddings she was a bridesmaid in have ended in divorce. She is not the marrying kind. What Miz does "do" is go on dates with her casual-but-very-hot boyfriend, Daniel. ... That is, until Miz accidentally finds a ring box, with an actual engagement ring, in his gym bag. She panics, hides the ring, and immediately breaks up with Daniel. Then, when her best friend Kal, an aspiring actor, finds himself at risk of losing his visa, Miz is devastated. If Kal is forced to leave Toronto and return to Ethiopia, who knows when they'll see each other again? How will Miz survive without him? Suddenly, she knows what to do: She will marry Kal and sign immigration papers for him so that he can stay in Canada. He'll keep pursuing his dream of being an actor, and she'll keep her best friend. It's the perfect setup for them: a brief marriage of convenience. Between two people who are just friends. Right?"-- |
