Kara Farrington has a perfect life: she has a boyfriend her parents love, the money to buy Prada shoes, and a friend who loves shopping with her. Except, Kara has grown indifferent toward her boyfriend, doesn't care much about her parents' money, and hates shopping. Her motto is "fake it till you make it," and it's been doing her just fine, even if "perfect" doesn't actually mean "happy." When Kara receives birthday gifts full of betrayal and heartache, her perfect life begins to crumble. All Kara wants is to continue her grandpa's legacy by joining the family law business to help those less fortunate. Gramps is Kara's role model, and after she graduates from college, she wants to use the power of law to help people. But with her anxiety, stage fright, and well-practiced faux life, convincing her parents she's ready for the pre-law track seems impossible.

"the way back to us"
They met as kids-classmates until the fourth grade-where he had a quiet crush on her before she transferred schools. Years later, fate brought them back together in high school. What started as friendship quickly turned into something deeper, and for four years, they were inseparable. They had plans, dreams, and a love that felt unshakable. Until the day she broke up with him and disappeared from his life without a single explanation. Years passed, but the unanswered questions never left him. Neither did the feelings. He tried to move on, to forget, but no one ever came close to being what she was to him. And just when he thought he'd finally buried the past, she came back-this time, as his fiancée in a marriage neither of them chose. She tells herself it's just duty. He tells himself he's over it. But the past lingers between them, unspoken and unresolved. The tension simmers, the familiarity remains, and despite everything, so does the pull between them. He fell first. And even after all these years, he never truly stopped. She thought walking away once was hard-she never imagined falling again would be even harder.
Before you
She's always been a hopeless romantic, even though love has never seemed to work in her favor. Being one of the most popular girls in school-a talented artist, a writer, and a volleyball champion-she was confident, yet still doubted anyone would truly see her beyond her looks. That is, until Nate entered the picture. Nate, the arrogant, confident final-year student, seemed to have every girl wrapped around his finger. And yet, for some reason, he set his sights on her. A chance encounter turned into bold flirtation, and now she finds herself caught between intrigue and caution. Should she give him a chance? Or is he just another heartbreaker playing a game? Between school, deep talks with her effortlessly elegant best friend Zoe, and the looming senior party she almost forgot about, things are getting interesting. And as much as she tries to play it cool, she can't ignore one undeniable fact-Nate is getting under her skin.
