Priya Biswas is happy being invisible. All she wants to do is make it through the next year of her life unnoticed and then she can graduate and maybe finally feel like an adult. But after she drunkenly bonds with Braden Harding, soccer captain extraordinaire, he seeks her with an unusual request: pretend to be his girlfriend to keep the girls away so he can focus on his game.
It's a completely ridiculous idea, of course. But maybe a little ridiculousness is exactly what Priya needs in her life. So she agrees, thinking that maybe it's about time she did something out of the ordinary.
Fake dating Braden Harding is definitely a whole new world, one filled with very real pressures and very real dilemmas and very real scrutiny and eventually, very real feelings. As Priya ventures outside her comfort zone on a mission to find herself, she must decide if she's willing to lose her heart in the process.

Love Me or Leave Me
Cover art by @LNRoberts1 College student, Aveen Sullivan, has a huge crush on the strapping rugby player, Jamal Jean-Pierre. They meet at a college dorm party the last week of her freshman year, and she's certain he likes her too. He's flirty and fun, and at the end of the night, he asks for her phone number. You don't do that if you're not interested, right? But after Aveen goes home for her summer break, she never hears back from Jamal. And to make matters worse, he turns up on her radar again, when her best friend, Jenna, texts her that she's dating a new guy from her summer internship, and his name is Jamal Jean-Pierre! With the new semester just starting, Aveen must now pretend that she isn't bothered by seeing her crush and her best friend together, but Jamal keeps popping up everywhere: in her History class, at her part-time job, in the cafeteria, and pretty much everywhere else. And unless she's reading things the wrong way, he still seems to be flirting with her. Confused and wondering whether Jamal is just a rake, Aveen makes a concerted effort to move on. However, when Jenna and Jamal talk Aveen into helping them prepare for a TV game show with a trip for two to Miami as the Grand Prize, Aveen has had enough. But Jenna and Jamal won't take no for an answer. Instead, they insist on setting Aveen up with their mutual friend Fred, so that Aveen and Fred can compete as well. It turns out that Fred has an interesting secret, but he's up for a free trip to Miami, so he agrees to fake date Aveen to see if they can win. But there's something else that Fred knows, and it's about Jamal's true feelings for Aveen and a family tragedy that has left him heartbroken and fragile. This new information changes everything, and Aveen has to decide what to do. Should she trust her instincts, pursue Jamal, and risk losing her best friend, or should she move on and quietly try to mend her broken heart?
Well, You Fooled Me
"We fake date each other for two or three weeks then we have a public breakup." I think he's hit his head one too many times playing football. "Really that's all you could come up with?" He just rolls his eyes. "It's perfect! Stacy will move on because she can't have me." Katie Fleming is your average shy girl and sarcasm is her main language. She has one best friend, well two if you count her best friend's boyfriend. Katie thought her senior year was going to be easy, stay single, aggravate her best friends boyfriend, and try her best to get straight A's in all her classes. Well, that was till her school's star quarterback almost hits her with his car. Wyatt M. Kent is Clearwaters' star quarterback and the most popular boy in school. Ever since he almost hit Katie with his car, he can't stop noticing her. So, to stop the head cheerleader (who absolutely despises Katie,) from constantly flirting with him he proposes the idea of them fake dating. But little did he know getting her to agree might come with a high price. What happens when you can't tell if you're fooling each other, or if the feelings are real?
