    Summary

    Andrea is unfazed when she asks lightly, “You seem disappointed to see me."

    “And you seem remarkably eager to talk to someone who is disappointed to see you.”

    Or in other words: An unexpected incident forces Princess Emily and Andrea Sachs, first daughter of the Madam President of the United States, into a desperate PR stunt: convince the world that they are best friends. Emily thinks it is easy enough playing the part for the cameras...what is hard is resisting the sudden, crashing tide of feelings that threatens her lifelong vow of duty before love.

    Summary

    “Half the fun for you is me being here,” Andy says out loud, a discreet red tinting her cheeks and giving away the sudden warmth in her veins beneath her teasing, light tone.

    “Don't make me laugh,” Emily mutters, though her incessant tapping slows down.

    or

    Three years after reuniting, Emily and Andy have built a life in the margins of their high-powered careers between weekly game nights and the ever-lingering ghost of Runway. But when a Dior event whisks them away to the sub-bleached cliffs of Sicily, the carefully kept distance between them is disturbed, forcing both to reckon with a dormant truth that has been waiting, like the Mediterranean tides, to claim them.

    Summary

    “Wyn, what are you asking me?”

    “Well—Roark and I thought that maybe you and mum would date.”

    “Date?” Andy repeats, her voice much too high. She looks down at the girl. “Well that’s really sweet, honey, and I like your mom a lot, but… your mom doesn’t date women. She doesn’t like other women like that.” Her excuse is flimsy. She doesn’t deny that she does like Emily how Bronwyn is insinuating but she hopes the girl doesn’t catch on.

    Bronwyn furrows her eyebrows. “She doesn’t?”

    OR

    Bronwyn is nosy and gets into Andy’s head. Emily thinks she’s bad at kissing, so Andy agrees to help her test that theory.
    (But is she bad at kissing or is she just a lesbian?
