All Anika Armageddon wants in life is to hang out with cool people and to blow stuff up. As a professional stuntwoman, that doesn't seem like a big ask. Her career is finally starting to take off, and everything she's worked for is within her reach.

Steve Erikson has money, awesome friends, and no ambition. Nothing is missing in his life. He's content to be the guy no one takes seriously, always ready with an inappropriate comment or two.

Anika and Steve begin a friendship rooted in a similar sense of humor and an even greater love for food.

When separate circumstances in their lives force them to reevaluate their futures, they find the perfect solution is to just marry one another. For business reasons.

Steve may not exactly feel like he's marriage material, but he promises to be the best partner he can be to his new wife, and she promises the same. It doesn't take long for Steve to realize maybe his life had been missing something all along.

They're the perfect team.
They've prepared for every scenario.
Problem is, they never discussed what to do if he accidentally falls in love with her.
