Scottie Price just started a new job and it's a real sausage fest. She's the only woman on a team filled with Brads and Chads. Expecting a bachelor pad atmosphere, she is quickly corrected when she finds out everyone is happily married.
In an effort to impress her boss, Scottie mentions her nonexistent husband in a company meeting. But eagle-eyed Chad points out her lack of wedding ring. Panicked, Scottie creates a story about her unhappy marriage. Unfortunately for Scottie, her boss has a solutionâa one-on-one session with the best marriage counselor in the Northeast, who happens to be her bossâs husband.
With no way out of her lie, Scottie agrees to see him. Frantic, she calls in help from her best friend who sets her up with his brother, an improv-obsessed millionaire.
Enter Wilder Wells. More than happy to take on the job, he teaches Scottie the main rule of improv: always say yes. But the rule backfires during the session when Wilder signs them up for an eight-day summer marriage camp with all of Scottieâs co-workers where sheâll have to share a cabin with her way-too-handsome fake husband.

Till Summer Do Us Part
âYou wereâŠyou were perfect. You did nothing wrong. You actually did everything right, and Iâm starting to realize that I spent so much time in a relationship with someone I shouldnât have been with. Iâm seeing that there is more out there in the world. There are people whoâd appreciate me the way that I want to be appreciated.â
âHe reminds me to not be so serious all the time, that there is more to life than just the day-to-day. That itâs okay to break routine. To let loose. To be the person that maybe I hold back from being.â
âI mean, I donât think itâs that big a deal that I pulled out your chair. We might not be getting along, but I donât have to be an asshole and not pull out my wifeâs chair for her.â
âThey probably thought I was a sex fiend and thatâs why our marriage wasnât working, because I wanted to be surrounded by plastic, jiggly prosthetics rather than the jiggly shaft in my husbandâs pants.â
âScottie, I can tell you right now, that was not a one-time thing. Being inside youâŠthat most certainly was not a one-time thing. There is no way I could handle only fucking you once.â
âPips, that ass of yours in those pajama shorts that you wear? Deathly. I canât tell you how many times Iâve snuck glances at you while you wear those.â
âMy mom was adamant about me and Mika being gentlemen. We took turns opening doors for her and pulling out her chair. She said she didnât want to be the reason her sons didnât treat their partners well later in life.â
âI want everyone around me knowing that Iâm fucking my girl, that sheâs having a good timeâŠand that sheâs coming on my cock, because thatâs how my girls come.â
âMy number one priority when it comes to you is making sure youâre comfortable. I want to make sure youâre taken care of. And if this is how you feel, then thatâs that. This journey, itâs about you. Itâs not about me.â
âI know itâs not something we do. But that kiss just now, that changed everything. The relationship is different now. The intensity between us just became heavierâŠhotter. SoâŠstrip for me. Get fucking naked.
âSheâs fucking phenomenal in bed. No one compares. Pretty sure I blacked out last nightâŠand this morning.â
âYeah, I donât talk much about him or my family for that matter, other than some of the things you know. Should have informed you, especially about his current thirst for experiencing life. He heard the word âcampâ and you were instantly fucked.â
âWho doesnât have baggage? There isnât one person on this earth who hasnât opened a metaphorical suitcase and dumped in it. No life is perfect, no journey unmarred. Everyoneâs carrying around something. So thereâs absolutely no need to apologize.â
âIâm so attracted to you, Wilder. Really attracted. More than I probably should be. And the moment we kissed, I knew it wouldnât be the last. I knew I was going to need more.â
âOutrageous. Thatâs five dollars per possible orgasm. Given the user, there isnât even a solid chance of orgasm. What a rip-off.â
âMy love life is all kinds of fucked up, so I have no room to judge, but I will say this. Scottie is a once-in-a-lifetime girl. Sheâs loyal, sheâs smart, she keeps her friends close to her heart, and she deserves the world, something I believe you could give her.â
âTo keep it short and sweet, everyone was bragging about doing something with their significant other this past weekend, and I felt left out, so when it was my turn, I talked about me and my husband. Well, Chad pointed out I wasnât wearing a ring. I told him we were going through marriage troubles, and thatâs when Ellison pulled me to the side. So yeah, he called me out in front of the company. Heâs a dick.â
âItâs where our couples find the most success and the most renewal in their relationships. We believe here at Camp Haven that a marriage is not only a team effort but requires a deep emotional connection that needs to be solidified between partners. And that starts here in the bedroom. Therefore, we provide every aspect of what it means to have a thriving physical connection. Now, you donât have to take part in everything we offer in this room, but we want to give our couples the option to explore. To have fun. To possibly test things out they might have been nervous to ask for back at home.â
