Dex Truitt is a billionaire in casual clothes when he steps into an elevator with Bianca, a reporter on her way to interview him. She sizes him up as a delivery worker. Then she tells him exactly what she thinks of rich men like "Mister Moneybags," the subject of her assignment. Dex cancels the interview on the spot and introduces himself as Jay, a bike messenger. Bianca falls hard for Jay. He is grounded, unpretentious, easy to be around. At the same time, Dex keeps the interview alive through email, and those written exchanges take on a life of their own. Bianca finds herself pulled toward two men at once. She trusts Jay with her time. She trusts Dex with her thoughts. She does not know they are the same person. Dex did not plan for any of this to go so far. He did not plan to fall in love. But the longer the lie holds, the worse the landing will be. When Bianca finally learns the truth, both the man she laughed with on street corners and the man she sparred with over email stand to lose her for good.
