Falling in love with your best friend is something that only happens in movies, not in midlife… Mary Ellen For eighteen years, Antonio and I have been the best of friends. We’ve shared inside jokes, secrets, Cubs tickets, even an address. Everyone thinks that we’re secretly in love with each other, but that’s ridiculous. I mean sure, Antonio is charming and hot, and we almost kissed that one time, but I’d never do anything to risk our friendship. Until Antonio pulls a stunt right out of a rom-com… Antonio When my grandmother was on her death bed, I told a little white lie.

But Nonna unexpectedly recovered, and now she’s coming from Italy to spend Christmas in Chicago with me and my fiancée. She’s on a mission to get us to set a date for the wedding. Now I need to convince Mary Ellen to move into my apartment, sleep in my bed, and pretend to be my fiancée.
