After Sharlot Citra's mother cathces her in a compromising position with her boyfriend, she finds herself whisked from LA to her mother's native Indonesia, a place Sharlot knows nothing about. Sharlot has apparently become too loose, too American, too everything. A summer getting back to their roots is what they both need. Or so her mother thinks. George Clooney Tanuwijaya's family - one of the wealthiest in Indonesia - has a reputation to maintain. George is spending far too much time playing video games. His father knows exactly what he needs: a normal relationship. With a human being. Sharlot's mother and George's father both do what any "good" parent would do: strike up a conversation on a social media app, pretending to be their children. When Sharlot and George find out, they're horrified. This "love connection" is terrible. Nothing could possibly make Sharlot and George fall for each other. But as the layers peel back, the truth becomes more complicated. as unlikely as it may seem, did their parents manage to find a true match after all?
