Between all the talks of tastings and venues, and the chirping of his family?s RSVP texts, the question of who will be his chambel?n is on everyone?s minds. What Joaquin is decidedly trying to not think about is whether his mom is going attend or if she?s finally replaced him with her favorite godson, Felix?the boy who made Joaquin realize he was gay and who was his first kiss. But when an impromptu lie snowballs into a full-fledged family-group-chat rumor, every Zoido from Texas to Mexico starts believing that Felix is not only Joaquin?s chambel?n but also his brand-new boyfriend. To avoid the pity and sympathies of an ill-timed breakup, Joaquin and Felix strike a deal?they?ll stay fake boyfriends until the party. Yet, as the day draws nearer and old feelings spark anew, Joaquin will have to decide whether a picture-perfect queercea?era with a fake boyfriend is worth giving up the chance of something real.
