Cheers To Comeuppance

It was just supposed to be pretend. A favor, a wish, a temporary arrangement with a man she was never meant to fall for. But what began as a way to help someone else quickly becomes a game of emotional boundaries and unexpected desire. Because when your heart’s not supposed to be involved… what happens when it is?

At the New Year's party, my pineapple juice is swapped for beer. To make things worse, I've just taken cephalexin, which shouldn't be mixed with alcohol. After barely surviving the ordeal, I am shocked to see my husband, Harry Grant, defending Sally Lane, who was responsible for the mix-up. "Can we please just let it go? She didn't do it on purpose," Harry pleads. However, I'm not about to forgive Sally, especially given how sketchy her relationship with my husband has always been. But Harry cuts me off with a scowl, "Enough! She's just graduated and doesn't know any better. "What's the point of holding a grudge? Do you really want to ruin her life to feel better?" he asks, clearly trying to protect her. As I watch him stand by her, my heart sinks. "Fine then, go live with her."

COLLEGE YEARS Aria is placed in a luxury campus condo due to her academic scholarship, funded by Talia’s dad. Talia, a spoiled socialite, who must room with “a normal girl” to receive her trust fund. Is instantly cruel to Aria. Jalen and Talia are dating, and the relationship becomes toxic, public, and intense. Meanwhile, Aria and Jalen are paired for a business project. They develop an unexpected friendship; Jalen opens up about his family pressures. Tension builds, Aria sees Talia cheat at an all campus party, Jalen gets drunk and shows up at the condo and find Aria there alone they have deep confessional talk, which leads them to start an affair. One day before the holiday break, she is seen leaving his condo. He then ghosts and blocks her to save face with Talia. Aria is shattered. She finishes the semester, leaves the school, switches to online classes, and disappears from campus life. TEN YEAR REUNION Aria walks in stunning, rich, powerful, confident, and full-blown success. Started an all-inclusive luxury products brand selling clothing, shoes, uniforms, and jewelry at budget prices. Jalen is shook. He’s still hot but stuck in a miserable marriage to Talia, who’s now a bitter, botoxed influencer. Aria ignores Jalen all night. Talia tries to humiliate Aria, but Aria’s confidence and power shine. On her way to her car to leave, Jalen grabs her and kisses her hard. She lets herself feel it, then slaps him and walks away. Sparks are reignited. Emotions are messy. THE BUSINESS MERGER Jalen’s cruise company wants to partner with Aria’s brand to increase bookings. Redesign the uniforms, the rooms, and product sells on the cruiseliners. She agrees, but reluctantly. What will happen when these two are forced to work together again?

"I'm willing to be a papa to your son, but don't ever expect me to treat you like a wife." To realize her son's dream of having a daddy, Lily is willing to enter into a contract marriage with Keenan, who also happens to be desperate to find a wife to inherit his family's company.

Or will each of them choose to give up when there is no more reason to survive?

Amanda's return to the country was greeted by sad news. She lost her beloved sister. The grave was still wet, but her papa urged her to get married. Not with the man she loved. However, with a widower who was none other than her late sister's husband. She wanted to ask for his blessing to marry her lover, but the situation made things complicated. Amanda never expected to be presented with such a surprising request. Marry a former brother-in-law and become a birth mother to a month-old baby girl? It was both ridiculous and sad considering their ages. But how could she refuse? "Everywhere there is a sugar baby or sugar daddy, while I'm a sugar mommy. Radit is too young to be my husband. This is crazy!"

At first it was a contract, made to meet two ends but when she gets booted out by surprise, the best thing to do is to get a divorce, right? Wrong! Drake doesn’t want her gone, doesn’t want the baby and doesn’t want the divorce and yet doesn’t want to love her, so what can Valerie do? And when she tries to impose the divorce, he cruelly threatens the one thing that she cares about, a secret she thought she had hidden so well… if he can go to such lengths, what would he do when he finds out about a baby that wasn’t supposed to happen.
