An artist forced into a fake romance with her old crush fights to keep buried feelings from resurfacing.
Artist Evelyn swallows a doctored drink intended for arrogant hockey player Julian, activating a binding wager that compels them to perform a convincing public romance. The arrangement demands staged affection and constant shared appearances, stripping away the emotional distance she cultivated over two years after deciding her silent infatuation was finished. Every rehearsed encounter erodes the defenses she built, making the line between contractual obligation and authentic desire increasingly impossible to distinguish.
