For bisexual Clementine, dating girls has never really been on the cards. She was loved up with her boyfriend, until she wasn’t. But a chance encounter with the chaotic Chloe Lee makes her wonder if new experiences could be closer than she thought.
However, Chloe isn’t actually interested in Clementine, or at least not for a real relationship. Her friends have recently announced their engagement and she’s now the last single woman. So Chloe proposes a deal: Clem acts as her girlfriend until the wedding is over, and Chloe will help her through her baby gay era so she can start dating for real.
As Chloe and Clem embark on a fake relationship to fool everyone around them, is it possible that they might just be fooling themselves instead…

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The sparkling third installment in Spalding's Out in Hollywood series (after At Her Service) features a newly single 30-something woman rediscovering herself. Clementine just left her boyfriend of nearly 20 years because he was ready for marriage and children and she doubts she ever will be. Now, bisexual Clementine is ready to try dating women for the first time and heads to an L.A. gay bar—only to be catcalled by two creepy men on her way in. Coming to her rescue is Chloe Lee, whom Clementine has met before at a party. Together, the pair head into the bar, where Clementine explains her newly single, "baby gay" status. Chloe, who needs a date to an upcoming wedding, offers to give her some experience in queer dating through a fake relationship. Genre-savvy Clementine has read enough romance novels to know this is a bad idea and initially rejects the proposal. Later, however, when explaining her breakup to two married friends, she can't stand the pitying looks they give her and claims to be in a new relationship to get them off her back. The ensuing fake dating scheme is a light and humorous vessel for Chloe's and Clementine's feelings to grow. Their banter is electric, and it's a joy to watch Clementine come into her own. This is a treat. Correction: A previous version of this review incorrectly stated that this is the second book in the series.
