"So, are you in?" he asked, his tone gentle, but the patience in his voice was slipping.
She took a moment to mull it over, and finally met his piercing blue eyes.
"Yes," she replied, with a shaky breath, and he let out a contented sigh.
"But under 1 condition," she began, her voice unwavering, "you can't fall in love with me."

All her life, the one thing Maddie knew best was saying goodbye. Due to the fact that her mother was a travel agent, and her father was the head of an international corporation, they were always on the move.
When Maddie's parents are given a case for which they can't move for a certain period of time, Maddie is forced to adapt to the wild lifestyle that LA has to offer.
Soon she finds herself a bit overwhelmed. With balancing her new life, and trying to get the hang of living like a normal teenager.
But once she steps foot into the notorious, posh, one and only Danforth Prep., the crazy doesn't end.
When the "Queen B", Arabelle Smith, finds Maddie a threat to her and Zac, the boy she's been hopelessly crushing on forever, her and her posse go out of their way to do anything and everything to make Maddie's life a living hell.
The thing is, the second Zac lays his eyes on Maddie, something, almost like some magnetic force, makes him want to get to know her, and maybe even be more than just friends.
So when an idea so crazy pops into Zac's head, he can only hope she'll agree.
But if saying goodbye is Maddie's signature move, will the plan be worth it in the end?

Excerpt :
"I can't believe they chose you!", I said.
"Oh, so you think I knew about all this? Marrying you was the last thought in my mind ", he spoke coldly.
"Look, if we are marrying each other, we have to find a way to stand each other. I can't take any more troubles in my life. So after this whole marriage thing, let's just travel our own paths, not shoving our noses into each others business. Deal? ", I asked hoping he'd say yes.
"Deal", he said with a smirk "as long as you truly keep yourself to only yourself. "
I narrowed my eyes and said "As if. " and walked away.
