Summary

Ryu Haeri* has always been good at keeping her life exactly the way she wants it-controlled, independent, and uncomplicated. Then comes Yang Jungwon. For years, he's been the person she can never quite ignore. A rival, a constant challenge, and someone she never imagined she'd have to pretend to date. But with a wedding approaching and circumstances getting complicated, a simple arrangement seems like the easiest solution. Three weeks. One wedding. One fake relationship. "It's temporary." "Then why are you looking at me like that?" "I'm just playing along." That should have been enough. But the longer Haeri plays the part, the harder it becomes to tell where the act ends and something else begins. Because sometimes, the most dangerous lies are the ones that start with a little truth.

And with all of that out of the way...

There’s Ryu Haeri.

There’s a wedding.

There’s a deal that was never supposed to become complicated.

And then there are feelings neither of them planned for.

That’s all I’m telling you for now.

Because the rest?

You’ll have to find out yourself.

WELCOME TO FACADE.
