Maddie Topher's parents are the equivalent to 214 SWAT teams members that have her life COMPLETELY on lockdown. They practically control everything about about her, but she just doesn't know how much because she's used to it. Until she meets him. He's the one that turned her life upside-down, the one that has her on the edge, not knowing what to expect. And she likes it that way.But what happens when you put a good girl, with a sneaky little brother, two supposedly loving boys, and one tragic event all in one story? Answer? Things aren't pretty. You know what they say about your bad actions. They only lead to bitter consequences.

Shawna Roberts is the girl that every guy turns to when they need a fake date, a fake girlfriend, a fake fling to make some other girl jealous, a fake couple photo to send to their parents... Shawna's pretty much seen it all. But no matter what they pay her for, everything she does has one common factor: it's all fake. That doesn't make being their paid girl much easier, though. Adam Ferrell is the campus heartthrob with the appearance of a god, an ego the size of Canada, and worshiped by everyone to monumentally ridiculous proportions. In Shawna's mind, it's a miracle his head fits through his shirt every morning. Yet despite their instant dislike for one another, Adam and Shawna each need what the other can offer. When Adam unexpectedly pushes into Shawna's life with a business deal, she's torn between her feelings and her sense of duty, which protects a secret she has kept for years, from even those closest to her. And as the two begrudgingly get to know each other, masks start slipping and secrets come spilling out, forcing each of them to confront some of their darkest moments and deepest fears.
