The Dat­ing Contract

Sports Agent Leah Nach­man is knee deep in her sister’s wed­ding dra­ma and inch­es away from her biggest career goal when she runs into the high school boyfriend who broke her heart. The last thing she needs is anoth­er con­fronta­tion with the man too many peo­ple are con­vinced is her bash­ert. But per­haps he can be of use. After all, she’s total­ly over him. Right?

Sofer and Com­ic Let­ter­er Samuel Levine is at a pro­fes­sion­al cross­roads when he runs into what he believes is a fat­ed sec­ond chance. He hasn’t seen Leah in ages, but the guilt over how they broke up still eats at him. When Leah pro­pos­es a fake dat­ing con­tract’ to help her make part­ner at her agency, and thwart her sister’s match­mak­ing, Samuel agrees. His goal is for­give­ness, after all.

But the more time they spend togeth­er as plus ones,’ the more like fate the dates feel. Leah is con­vinced love and ambi­tion can’t co-exist and Samuel’s con­vinced he’s los­ing her. Will they let their dat­ing con­tract expire or give love anoth­er chance?
