The story that inspired the coloring page: 

Ruth Clark is one paycheck away from running out of road. She works in Malibu for an aging Hollywood diva, lives in a glorified shed in the hills, and has spent three years pretending she's still on track for Stanford grad school. She's not. She never even finished undergrad. Nobody knows — and she'd like to keep it that way.
   Then she wakes up with her face smooshed on a toilet in a stranger's bathroom with a hangover from hell and twenty-seven pages of legal paperwork. Apparently, last night she signed a 369-day fake-marriage contract with none other than Sebastian Bontrager — the runaway rockstar whose brother just died on tour. Walking away costs them each millions they don't have. This accidental fake marriage is a dangerous game cooked up by Seba's out-of-touch famous friends, and the legal contract is binding. For Ruth and Seba, there is no way out but through.
   They’ve both been hiding from the world. Now, these total strangers have no choice but to step into the spotlight as a couple. Can they work together to outwit this sinister marriage scheme, or will they fall apart in front of the flashing lights? 

Some lies you can't take back, and some loves are never meant to be. Can Ruth and Seba rewrite this sad song, or are they doomed to sing it softly to the end?

Perfect for fans of Emily Henry who crave a bookworm romance with more teeth, or fans of Taylor Jenkins Reid who long for a literary love story with a sweet note.
