She should've said no. Amelia Sterling has always played by the rules, it's the only way she knows how to survive in a world like hers. That is until William Blackwood, the boy she can't quite bring herself to like, let alone trust, makes her an offer she can't refuse. A deal. A fake relationship. A public performance for a world that watches every move. But keeping up appearances is harder than it looks. Between family expectations, high-society whispers, and the girl William seems determined to win back, Amelia finds herself caught in jealousy, pretense, and the sting of her own growing feelings. The deal was only supposed to fool everyone else. Not her as well. -*- Tropes: ♡ Slow-burn romance ♡ Reluctant allies ♡ University + high-society setting ♡ Fake dating Disclaimer: This story includes mature themes and a few intimate scenes.
