"I need you to help me be a good guy," he said bluntly, blue eyes piercing my questioning gaze. And that's when I started laughing hysterically. I mean the whole laughing silently, mouth wide open, clapping like a retarded seal. And then I saw the dead serious look he had on his face. My jaw dropped in shock. "You're serious?" The glare he gave me right then was my answer. Holy crappers, Hilton's resident bad boy wants to be a good guy. *********************************************************************************************** Lyla Matherson lives in a town where being the bad boy or dating the bad boy is the way to roll. In the small town of Hilton, the boys and girls experience what Lyla calls "the baddies". The guys all want to be the bad boy. The girls want to date or "change" the bad boy, like in the cliché romance novels. And Lyla, well Lyla wants them all to go straight down to hell. She hates the bad boy epidemic and takes pride in literally being the only girl not taking part in the bad boy fever.
