Home Office Lovers

Successful and slightly nerdy marketing professional, Nicolette Ferris finds herself living the worst nightmare of much of the first world – a pandemic that even high dollar medical systems and economies are not well prepared for. After hoping for the best and isolating herself from social media and news for a week for her mental health, she gets the news on the same day that she will be working from home and schools are closed indefinitely. Armed with her silly sense of humor, her 7 year old adopted son, and her secret embarrassing love for dating reality shows, she begins to find a new normal as she listens to her co-dependent and serial dating best friend complain about canceled dates due to the pandemic. In this stressful time, an idea comes to her to help company morale – their own version of reality dating involving her as a matchmaker, anonymously connecting co-workers she thinks might click without knowing who the other is so pre-conceived biases are removed, excluding herself, of course. After all, she has a young son to worry about right now, and the one man she has ever wanted is way off limits. But when someone anonymously requests a date with her, Nicolette takes the initial dive to join her own game, not knowing what to expect after her friend pushes her by agreeing to shelve her serial dating ways and take this seriously in exchange for this one selfish move from the typically selfless Nicolette. Will this be the start of a happily ever after she has secretly wanted this whole time? Or will it simply bring more stress to her already busy and anxious world?
