But when they make it clear he needs to bring a respectable date to his family reunion to announce his brother's engagement, he doesn't know what to do.
Until Stella agrees to play along.
Fake date to keep Stella's friends unstressed and to keep Luke's family off his back. Then walk away unscathed. But as fake touches turn to real glances, both Stella and Luke are forced to face reality, whether they want to or not.
