Summary
In a moment of panic, Emily volunteers her best friend and roommate JJ to pretend to date her for one deeply chaotic Christmas break with her overbearing mother. It should have been simple - hold hands, smile for pictures, don’t let JJ find out about her very real crush.
Unfortunately for Emily, it wouldn't be that easy. It doesn’t take long at all for the line between fake and real to start blurring, her feelings for JJ growing stronger every day, getting closer and closer to revealing themselves.

Summary
Michael is okay. Kids are resilient and even with Henry off to college, he’s got no shortage of male role models to choose from. Luke is his favourite, which JJ is pretty sure is only because Luke is Aunty Penelope’s favourite and Michael worships the ground she walks on. So, Michael has Luke and Penelope, Henry has Spence, and JJ has all of them and none of them. Most days it feels like she’s on her own.
“That’s not totally true though,” Dr. Ochoa says. “You have Emily.”
