When two rival actors are forced to charade as an "It Couple", will their make-believe romance turn into reality? ***** Co-stars Jada and Tristan's lives collide when Tristan's careless ways with women bring drama to the set of their new film. His scandals blow up the internet and in a desperate attempt to save face with the tabloids and salvage his image, Tristan asks Jada to become his temporary girlfriend. Reluctantly, Jada agrees as Tristan and his manager, Doug, promise they will get her prominent acting roles if she goes along with the façade.

HIGHEST RANK- #1 in Crush #2 in Paranormal For a moment he just sits there watching me with amused eyes, a smirk playing on his lips. Suddenly he stands up and walks forward until he's only inches from my body. Our faces so close that I can actually see the small sliver flecks in his eyes as they shimmer. "Wha-what are you doing?" I stutter my voice coming out as a breathless whisper. He breathes out. His breath fanning across my face, it smells of peppermint with a hint of orange. I shiver at the feeling. Sending a sensation that's equally as phenomenal as it is terrifying down my body. He leans in just a little closer so that our noses are almost touching. I stare up into his eyes, unsure of what to do. I feel frozen in place, like I can't move, like maybe I don't want to. "Time to seal it with a kiss" he suggests with a smirk. 🔹🔹🔹 Bethany Hibbler has a secret that she has kept from everyone. For 17 years Bethany has never told anybody that she can read minds. But then there's a new guy in school, he's arrogant, rude, egotistical, easily angered, and completely hot-he's Jake Lester. Before, Beth never believed in the paranormal world, but the word impossible seems all too possible when Jake arrives. This book is full of mind reading, a new set of vocabulary words, including: Book of Sacrimboniamat, The world of Eribiss, Eron, & Necrif, a lot of mistakes on Beth's part, some paranormal weirdness, confusion, palm facing stupidity, sarcasm, embarrassing moments, and a whole lot of comebacks. ➖➖ "Oh my freaking God such a good book! Girl you better keep writing this is aw-mase-ing"-@pinklady7777777 "I'm so excited, can't wait for more. I love this book so much, it's so interesting and totally the kind of book I read. 😊😍 U are an amazing writer 😘"-@Happyloner2004 "Honestly, this is one of the most amazing stories I've ever read!!! Wonderful story plot and the characters are equally amazing! Keep the creative juices flowing"

She was a girl ensnared by secrets and scars. He was a boy forged from power and frost. When an enigma collides with an Elite, they must either heal or descend into their own hell to survive. --- Seventeen-year-old Elaine Winters has one goal: to endure the torment of her bullies and ignore the new student who seems utterly out of place in their small town and public school. Alexander White is a boy she needs to stay away from-stunningly handsome, immensely rich, and dangerously cold. He is privileged beyond any normal measure. Catching his attention was a chance mistake. His relentless pursuit of her friendship, an anomaly. And when it turns into something deeper, it becomes the ultimate disaster in the making. But when buried secrets emerge from their caskets, Winter finds herself pulled into his world of city lights, power, mind games, and the elite atmosphere of boarding school. Soon, everything she thought she knew about the boy from her town is turned upside down. He becomes everything her heart dreads-and a danger her mind warns her of. She is his obsession, and he is her curse. Every belief is tested, but none of them is bound to win against the rule of Elites. A world where truth is what they make it. ◾ REVIEWS It is one of the best book I've ever read. Honestly it's worth publishing. -Missi_wei I've read this book a million times but I can never get over it. If you want to stop halfway through it...Then that is a big mistake. This book is the perfect blend of everything. Trust me, if you decide not to read this book then you are making a big mistake. -LushLyrics Wait...lemme process it all. This shit is way too deep. Like GOD AUTHOR YOU are amazing. Where do you even get these ideas? Oh God! -zara_yusuf
