As a luxury fashion sales associate, Marley Kamal is known for being cool, aspirational, and just the right amount of detached. One thing she is passionate about, getting surgery to reduce her chance of breast cancer after she learns she has the BRCA gene. But right before the scheduled operation, she has the professional opportunity of a lifetime - to style the latest up-and-coming Hollywood heartthrob.Nikhil Shamdsani is either on the brink of superstardom or a complete breakdown. Going from a nobody actor to major Hollywood superhero hasn't been a smooth transition. Comic nerds think he's a diversity hire, while fans expect him to singlehandedly represent the entire Indian community. When Nikhil learns his old high school friend and prom date is now in high fashion, he's thrilled to have someone he can trust as his stylist.So Marley and Nikhil make a deal. She'll style him for his events, and Nikhil will help care for her in the few critical weeks of after surgery. But soon Marley finds herself leaning on Nikhil as more than just a caregiver. And Nikhil finds his feelings growing stronger, too. When their rekindled friendship becomes something more, Marley fears her whole private life is about to be upended.
