BLURB
Golden boy. Party king. Trust fund brat.
That's what they call me - Lee Sterling, Oakmount University's favorite disaster.
Everyone thinks they know me, but they only see what I let them.
I’m the guy who can charm his way out of anything, who never takes life serious. But it's all a ruse. They don't see the mask I wear or the cage of family expectations slowly threatening to suffocate me.
Six months. That's how long I have to find someone "suitable" to present at the Sterling New Year's Gala, or it's over.
I tell myself I can handle it, like I handle everything else - with a smile and a shot of bourbon, but deep down I know I'm inching closer and closer to the edge.
Then I meet Salem Masters in a dark pantry, at a party, and suddenly nothing feels simple anymore.
They call her crazy, broken. The girl who wears latex gloves, and counts her steps.
I call her beautiful, careful, haunted. Just like me.
One encounter and I’m obsessed. I need to know more about her, need to know if she's just like me.
When I discover we both share a common interest I convince her to be my fake girlfriend. She could use the protection, and I need to convince my family I’m normal…
That is until our fake relationship starts to feel real and I realize just how close to danger I am, because for the first time in my life I don’t want this to be a lie. I want it to be real.
