The American Roommate Experiment

Rosie Graham is stuck. After quitting her stable job to chase her dream of becoming a romance novelist, she is now facing a severe case of writer’s block. To top it off, her apartment’s ceiling collapses, and she finds herself in need of temporary housing. Fortunately, her best friend Lina’s cousin, Lucas Martin, is in town and offers her a place to stay. Unbeknownst to Rosie, this is the same Lucas she’s been secretly crushing on for months.

When Rosie’s deadline looms and she struggles to find inspiration, Lucas proposes an unusual solution: a series of “fake” dates to spark her creativity. As their forced proximity leads to real feelings, Rosie and Lucas must navigate the thin line between friendship and romance.
