I LOVED THIS ONE!!! This follows Lily’s sister, Violet who is a celebrity stylist. She is workaholic, always on the go and while on a trip in Vegas she runs into her high school ex- boyfriend, Xavier. Xavier, is a high school teacher and basketball coach and he has dreams of moving up to college coaching. 
These two wake up the next day realize they got married, but don’t worry it was just a pretend marriage. While giving an interview, Violent alludes to being married and they dig up that it is to Xavier and bam, these two end up in a fake marriage to help Xavier get the basketball game of his dreams and allow Violet to save face. 
I love second chance romance when it is done right and this was DONE RIGHT! I loved seeing these two talk and figure out how to have their careers and relationship and make room for that relationship
