Description
Callie Jones has three rules: keep her band The Wake from imploding, never-ever-date a musician again (she learned that lesson the hard way), and avoid viral internet disasters. Too bad rule number three just went up in flames. Because Jaren Smith AKA Smii7y, an ultra-popular YouTube gamer, went to a show with some friends and got caught in a livestream misunderstanding, the internet is hating on him like he is the worst human ever (he kind of is in the eyes of the internet). Jaren isn't even a music guy, his world revolves around speedruns, smack talk, and trying not to rage-quit in front of his almost 8 million subscribers. But when a joke about The Wake's lead singer goes horribly and gloriously viral, he finds himself face-to-face with their fiery lead singer... Who now hates his guts. To fix the PR nightmare, friends and family decide on the ultimate damage control: a fake friendship. A few interviews, conveniently timed social media moments, and everything will blow over. Easy, right? Between backstage banter, accidental late-night heart-to-hearts, and one very unexpected on-stage moment, Callie and Jaren wonder... What if the internet actually got this one right?
