Summary
Simon is a chef trying to make his way in a big, affluent city. He works in a designer restaurant, Unir, that caters to the rich and famous in order to pay bills while he's trying to get his bakery business off the ground. Every part of the restaurant rubs him the wrong way: the fake food, the cowardly staff, as well as the haughty customers. He's usually able to keep his resentment in check, but one day a snobby interior designer and his realtor boyfriend come in, and Simon is unable to keep himself from ruining their wedding proposal. Now he's stuck in a city with rent he can't afford, no job, a ruined reputation, and not many options.
Until the interior designer, Baz, offers him a job catering his wedding. Simon reluctantly takes the job, knowing that it will open many doors for him. He gets sucked into the world of an uptight designer who is stuck in a relationship he hasn't found a reason to sever, heading towards a wedding he doesn't know how to stop. Simon finds himself struggles with feelings that are growing between himself and his employer, and the harder he tries to stay out of the mess, the stickier the situation becomes.

Summary
Neil is a math nerd who, by a stroke of dumb luck, falls into a group of friends that are the closest thing to family he’s ever had. So, when he tells them about his new mysterious crush, he shouldn’t be surprised how immediately they come up with a plan to help win them over. One they insist that if Neil follows it, he’ll have them falling for him in no time. But things don’t always go to plan – or do they?
Nicky wants to set him up with someone else. Matt and Jeremy are confused but supportive. Allison and Seth offer lewd suggestions, while Dan does her best to keep everyone in line. Jean and Renee know something, Aaron doesn’t really care, and Kevin just wants Neil to join the lacrosse team.
But one thing’s for certain – whether Neil’s successful or not, everyone’s got money riding on this.

Summary
Baz Pitch loves, in no particular order; David Bowie, punk music, the feel of old vinyl, the smell of coffee (but not the taste), classic books, magic, David Byrne, the fact that he was raised by his aunt Fiona, and maybe, sometimes, Simon Snow.
