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.

Katelyn Valentine isn't a stereotypical high school girl. She isn't the type of girl who would crush over boy bands or dream about her wedding. She is, however, the type of girl who claims that all celebrities are overrated. Unlike her best friend Delaney, who is obsessed over hot teen celebrities, Kate simply enjoys the life without drama. Alex Monreaux is the hot new face of Hollywood. Everywhere he goes, there are cameras, intrusive paparazzi and persistent screaming fans. So what brings this young teen celebrity to a small town? Kate soon finds herself to be stuck, stuck living with famous teen celebrity Alex (who she had no idea existed until he came knocking on her front door). Left without a choice, she is now forced to sacrifice her ordinary lifestyle and try to make the best out of the rest of her high school life, that is, if Alex could make that possible. Who would've thought that living with a celebrity could be so annoying? © 2010-2011 imperfectdreamer. All rights reserved. | Thank you for reading!

Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.
