   Summary

   C.J. is working in the social media department for Nook Inc. when he's offered a big promotion doing fishing events and outreach for the company instead. But his boss is somehow under the impression that he has a same-sex partner and C.J. feels compelled to maintain that illusion at least until he's settled into his new job, so he recruits his friend and neighbor Flick to pose as his boyfriend. But the situation gets out of hand, and after a while the fake dating set up starts to feel less and less fake.
