Nobody advises the exploitation of power. But when the world's prettiest suck-up offers to suck you off, what else can you do?

Nora isn't feeling great. She's almost failing most of the classes she takes, she makes herself uncomfortable and she would really love to kill herself if she wasn't such a Goddamn wuss. It's exam year and she is nowhere near prepared - in fact, she's actively ignoring revision in favour of watching bad movies and being mean to her kind-of boyfriend. But that's okay, she thinks, she can probably pull her grades up in time. Probably.
Mr Abraham teaches Biology; Nora's class is his first ever GCSE group. Fresh out of university, just moved in with his girlfriend and ready to do some good, the whole class hating him wasn't quite what he expected, but at least Nora doesn't. In fact, he doesn't mind her either.
When Nora decides taking drugs at school is a good idea, one of her wildest fantasies comes to fruition. But not the one she would have expected...

When a bachelor-style reality show centered around finding this year's Mrs. Claus comes to Charlie's small town, she is vehemently against the attention it brings, yet in the chaos of it all, somehow finds herself in the running as a contestant... and falling in love.
*****
In the weeks before Christmas, Charlie Duncan's small town finds itself the backdrop to the hit new reality show, Finding Mrs. Claus. And to spice up the drama, a handful of locals are thrown into the casting mix, including not only Charlie, but her best friend Ellie as well. While Charlie does everything she can to get tossed off the show (to no avail), and watches skeptically as Ellie truly begins to open up her heart, she can't help but feel a certain spark for the man behind the scenes - the show's producer, Noah Cyrus.
