When superpowers are involved, a marriage of convenience is anything but. Losing his beloved wife five years ago shattered Malcom "Mal" Mason's world. Hanging on for the sake of his teen daughter, Madison, he goes through the motions, leading his superhero team and protecting the citizens of Alaska from the occasional supervillain threat. When a rash of supervillain attacks coincides with his late wife's brother suing him for custody, Mal's barely maintained sanity threatens to snap. Could the answer to his problems lie in a marriage of convenience? On the run from mistakes of her youth, programmer and sometimes "hacktivist," Charlie has finally found a sense of community, living and working in a small but close knit town. Her secret "lie detector" powers can smell a conspiracy a mile away, and she just knows there's something bigger and more nefarious behind the recent villain attacks. Her investigating puts her in the villains' crosshairs and costs her her home. With no where else to go, the local superhero's offer to play house to get his snooty in-laws off his back seems ... tempting. Having a superhero in the next room to protect her from villains and easier access to the case she is determined to crack? Even better. As Mal and Charlie navigate villain attacks, meddling in-laws, and a rebellious teen in constant hot water, they're surprised at how good a team they make. Could there be something real in their pretending? Or will Charlie's secrets sink any chances of a happy ending?
