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 solution—a one-on-one session with the best marriage counselor in the Northeast, who happens to be her boss’s 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 Scottie’s co-workers where she’ll have to share a cabin with her way-too-handsome fake husband.

Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œI know you’ve been through a lot. If there’s one thing I don’t want you to ever experience again, it’s that feeling of insignificance. I’m in awe of you, and I know with certainty that I want to be a better man…for you. You deserve to be worshipped, so I’m going to prove that I can be the man who can do that. I’m going to prove that and more to you.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œHolding information out of fear is the biggest form of miscommunication, but it’s also the most common. Every relationship, no matter how excellent you are at talking to your partner, experiences a form of miscommunication. It’s human nature. We become guarded, we don’t want to get hurt, we’re unsure of how the other person is going to respond, so we hold our cards close to our chest. We don’t tell the entire truth, which always hurts the relationship in the long run.

ā€œI’m a chill guy, but don’t fuck with me, and don’t fuck with the people in my life.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œYou were…you were perfect. You did nothing wrong. You actually did everything right, and I’m starting to realize that I spent so much time in a relationship with someone I shouldn’t have been with. I’m seeing that there is more out there in the world. There are people who’d appreciate me the way that I want to be appreciated.ā€

Scottie
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œHe reminds me to not be so serious all the time, that there is more to life than just the day-to-day. That it’s okay to break routine. To let loose. To be the person that maybe I hold back from being.ā€

Scottie

ā€œI know it’s not something we do. But that kiss just now, that changed everything. The relationship is different now. The intensity between us just became heavier…hotter. So…strip for me. Get fucking naked.

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œScottie, I can tell you right now, that was not a one-time thing. Being inside you…that most certainly was not a one-time thing. There is no way I could handle only fucking you once.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œI think it’s a combination of a bunch of emotions. Sorrow for the woman who spent so much time with him. Joy for the woman who’s no longer with him. Excitement for the woman who just had the absolute best time of her life with a man between her legs.ā€

Scottie
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œMy mom was adamant about me and Mika being gentlemen. We took turns opening doors for her and pulling out her chair. She said she didn’t want to be the reason her sons didn’t treat their partners well later in life.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œI’m sorry. It’s just…I don’t know, this is crazy. I just had sex in a lake with a man who has four piercings on his penis. Like…if you had told me a year ago this is what I would be doing, I would have told you you were crazy.ā€

Scottie
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œShe’s fucking phenomenal in bed. No one compares. Pretty sure I blacked out last night…and this morning.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œIf you won’t strip and show me how fucking beautiful you are, then strip me down. Take off my pants. I know you want to. You want to know what kind of piercing I have. Admit it.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œThey probably thought I was a sex fiend and that’s why our marriage wasn’t working, because I wanted to be surrounded by plastic, jiggly prosthetics rather than the jiggly shaft in my husband’s pants.ā€

Scottie
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œI mean, I don’t think it’s that big a deal that I pulled out your chair. We might not be getting along, but I don’t have to be an asshole and not pull out my wife’s chair for her.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œBecause that’s the kind of guy he is. He’s the most humble rich fuck you will ever meet.ā€

Mika
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œTo 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 wasn’t wearing a ring. I told him we were going through marriage troubles, and that’s when Ellison pulled me to the side. So yeah, he called me out in front of the company. He’s a dick.ā€

Scottie
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œThis dresser is a minibar for sex.ā€

Wilder
Till Summer Do Us Part

ā€œI’m so attracted to you, Wilder. Really attracted. More than I probably should be. And the moment we kissed, I knew it wouldn’t be the last. I knew I was going to need more.ā€
