Summary
For years, Marcus Kane was Abby and Jake Griffin’s best friend—one of the couple’s closest confidants, Jake’s partner in crime, and surrogate uncle to the Griffins’ daughter, Clarke. But a year and a half after Jake’s tragic death shook their small town of Arkadia to its core, Marcus and Abby’s friendship ended abruptly.
Now, the following summer, the two are brought together to play Beatrice and Benedick in a community theater production of Much Ado About Nothing. This story follows Abby as she and Marcus allow themselves to fall back into old patterns of friendship, and as they wrestle with the events that drove them apart.
Featuring Bellamy as the director and dramaturg and Indra as the opinionated but lovable local coffee shop owner.

Summary
Peace has finally been established between all 13 clans. The celebration of the new treaty goes well enough - until Prince Reghan of the Broadleaf clan settles his eyes on Abby. To protect her from the prince's aggressive advances, Marcus proclaims that Abby is his betrothed, despite her being just his friend (and the object of his indefinable feelings). The prince is skeptical - so he decides to test the claim by throwing the pair a grandiose Grounder wedding.

Their mission is definitely going to be awkward, but achievable for the sake of the alliance. However, things turn complicated when they both realize that pretending to be in love is alarmingly easy...
