From a fake relationship-turned-real in Tashie Bhuiyan‘s I’ll Pretend You’re Mine and former flames-turned-dorm mates in Page PowarsAnd They Were Roommates to a dual-contemporary and historical tale of love then and now in Jordyn Taylor’s Rebel Girls of Rome, sometimes love falls on you! Especially when you least expect it. Moderated by Xixi Tian (All the Way Around the Sun).
