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.

I hate you.

--Ihr lief der Schweiß in Tropfen von der Stirn auf den kalten Steinboden, auf welchem ihr zarter, nackter Körper lag. Sie hatte viel zu viel erlebt. Der gierige Blick ihres Vergewaltigers durchbohrte sie förmlich, doch sie rührte sich nicht. Eine weiche Hand zog mein Gesicht in eine andere Richtung und die Lippen meines Freundes legten sich auf meine. Ich wusste, dass er mich nur davon abhalten wollte diesen widerwärtigen Vergewaltiger zu töten. "Tu es nicht.", hörte ich ihn fast unverständlich, doch ich war schon bei dem Mädchen und zog das sabbernde Tier von ihrem beinah leblosen Körper. Panisch kroch er in die Ecke des Raumes.

Er wäre nun der erste Tote seiner Gang. Ich zog mein altes, verziertes Messer aus meinem Stiefel und hielt es ihm an die Kehle. Einen Menschen zu töten war zu meiner persönlichen Droge geworden, denn das Adrenalin in meinem Körper fühlte sich jedes Mal einzigartiger an. Einzelne Blutstropfen liefen an meinem Messer vorbei an seinem Hals entlang. Er hatte einen schnellen Tod nicht verdient, er sollte langsame Qualen erleiden. Ein Klicken hinter mir ließ mich jedoch wieder aus meinem Blutswahn aufschrecken. "Da ist sie nun. Die große Blaire Silver." Ich ließ das Messer wieder sinken und drehte mich zu dem Mann hinter mir um. Er hielt mir seine Waffe an die Stirn. Im Schatten standen meine Leute, denen ebenfalls Waffen an die Köpfe gehalten wurden. Ein kurzes Zwinkern ihrerseits ließ mir ein Grinsen ins Gesicht zaubern. "Das war dein größter Fehler.", lachte ich ihm ins Gesicht. Um uns herum wurde es immer dunkler und das Adrenalin in meinen Adern stieg wieder an. Ich war in meinem Kampfzustand und bereit für das Blutbad...-- ~18.04.16 20K Views ❤ ~29.04.15 #43 in Jugendliteratur <3<3 ~21.01.19 #5 in Gang

Ranked #1 in Teen Fiction & Completed on 05/11/2017 ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ''Whatever you're thinking of doing right now. It's not a good idea,'' I hardly said, trying not to look at his lips. His close proximity seemed to be enough for my ability to breathe to say "Oh hell no. I'm out." "Is that so?" He whispered, "And why is that?'' "You're my cousin's enemy. There are rules. We can't do this.'' I stuttered, secretly trying to convince myself. I stepped back. He stepped closer. He knew I couldn't resist for long. "Well, I'm a bad boy.'' Haze started kissing my neck softly. How could something so wrong feel so right? My skin was on fire everywhere he laid his lips. It took everything I had not to cup his face and finally give in.
