Semi-Soet

Workaholic Jaci will go to any lengths to protect the boutique advertising agency she works for from being bought and dismantled by a ruthless businessman known as 'The Jackal'. Hope exists in the form a huge contract for a prestigious wine-farming family. But winning this contract won't be simple: Jaci needs to convince the farm owner that she lives up to his company's ideals of family values and commitment by proving that she is in a loving, long-term relationship. Desperate to appear to be living the balanced life she has long discarded, Jaci decides to hire a model to pretend to be her fake fiancé for the day. At the pitch meeting the facade seems to work until the client insists that she and her fake fiancé come away for the weekend to experience the wine farm before she pitches for the contract. Things get very complicated very quickly for poor Jaci, especially since the man she hired to be her stand-in-fiancé is the very 'Jackal' himself who is trying to sink her company.
