-COMPLETE- "So you set fire to my apartment?" I rolled my eyes at him. "No, I didn't. I was cooking and it decided to start burning." "...Then you're a terrible cook."

After Cole Foster and Aurora (Rory) Lynch have the last few days of college in some of the same classes and become somewhat friends, they find out that Cole is best friends with Rory's brother; Logan. When Logan asks how they know each other, Cole panics and says that they're seeing each other. When Logan leaves Cole begs Rory to pretend to be his girlfriend, it was all supposed to be pretend but were they actually pretending?

He usually prefers his employees to be less...bubbly. Energetic. A little more like him, essentially. But there was something about her the moment she introduced herself. Maybe it was the way she looked at him, or the way she smiled at everyone in her line of sight, who knows. But, whatever the reason is, he hates it. He hates that he gave into that feeling when he met her. She manages to find her way into his mind 24/7, unlike any woman ever has. She doesn't think she's ever seen someone as angry at the world as him. He can be rude and he doesn't always think about other's feelings before he speaks. A scowl somehow is always set on his face, like he was born that way. For any other person, a man like that would make you want to simply ignore him. But not her. She has her heart set on making him smile. Even just a little. Maybe even a laugh. And she is not giving up any time soon. It's not hard to tell that two people with personalities like theirs can lead to a dangerous combination.

Grayson Woods and I have been enemies since the first day we met, partly because he's my brother's best friend, partly because he's a complete asshole. But when he agrees to pretend to be my boyfriend to stop rumors, he makes hating him a hell of a lot harder. date completed: 11/20/2023 most impressive rankings: #1 enemiestolovers #1 itsalwaysbeenyou #1 anxiety #1 panicattacks #1 firstloves #2 teenromance #5 clingy

AMBY AWARDS TOP PICK 2023 ❤️ "You think I can't act like I'm into you?" He asks in a whisper. He reaches out, and strokes a finger down my cheek, and I feel myself shiver at the touch. "You think I can't convince everyone that I have feelings for you?" His eyes are darker than ever, and any sign of a smile has now vanished. The only word I can think right now to describe him is "smouldering". I have searched many great romance novels (and even more sub-standard ones), and I am yet to find a better synonym for that particular word. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Watson has always played by the rules.
