Perfect for fans Jenny Han and Elle McNicoll, this is
a hot chocolate hug of a romance. Meet Effie and Aiden, two teenagers
who meet at a local coffee shop and decide to fake date to convince
their circle they have what it takes to be in a relationship.
But when their fake dates are exposed, will they be able to
convince their friends that they want to date … this time
… for real?
Sixteen-year-old Effie is fed up of playing third-wheel. She can
often be found hanging out at the local coffee shop “Love
n Lattes” while her so-called friend Chelsea and her boyfriend
kiss in front of her.
One day, following a snide remark from Chelsea about never having
a boyfriend, she declares she can absolutely get a date if she
just asks for one, so she strides over to the counter and asks
the irresistibly cute barista Aiden to pretend to put his number
in her phone. Of course, he obliges with a grin – what ensues
is a whirlwind of fake dates. But when their fake dates are exposed,
Effie and Aiden decide to carry on dating for good, but then,
spoiler, nobody believes they really are in a relationship.
But who cares what anyone else thinks? This is Effie and Aiden’s
