The second in the series, this friends to lovers follows the local mayor as a scandal breaks out amid his reelection campaign. In order to quash the rumors and the bad press, he recruits his best friend to pretend to be his boyfriend. The best friend who is straight doesn’t seem to have a problem with it. 

A ridiculous setup but the fake boyfriend trope is ridiculous. Overall I enjoyed it.it was fun to add new careers in the to,nave genre and the addition of a local election added more tension and opportunities for Truman to have fun.
