In Pillow Armor, grief-stricken Marcus has retreated from the world, trapped by severe agoraphobia and a life ruled by fear. Everything changes when a breakup sends him into a dive bar, where he meets Ellie, a bold, impulsive photographer who pulls him through a panic attack and helps him build a strange suit of armor from pillows and duct tape. Their deal is simple: she will help him face the outside world if he pretends to be her fiancé at Thanksgiving. But as Marcus stumbles into Ellie's chaotic family gathering, old flames resurface, defenses fall, and a fake relationship begins to feel startlingly real.
