When a breakup happens, Nicole chooses to lie about being in a new relationship with someone unknown. However, this "someone" suddenly returns, ready to turn her life upside down.
Nicole had a wonderful and under control life.
Her parents had a more than stable financial situation, she was always surrounded by friends, went to parties frequently and got very high grades.
However, during summer vacation, her relationship of almost a year ended.
Her friends were very worried, and started doing everything they could to make her forget about this boy. Their attitude may have been noble, but Nicole wasn't ready to start another relationship.
In order to not hurt her friends and preserve their feelings, Nic lies about having an affair with the son of one of her father's partners, who was currently studying in Italy, with no expected return.
Everything was going well, until Ethan returned to the United States. With the intention of finishing his last semester of high school, he starts going to the same academy as Nicole.
As if things couldn't get worse, they are off to a rough start, bickering about the smallest things. Despite that, Nic will try to put their differences aside and ask for a huge favor: for him to pretend to be her boyfriend.
And, although both of them begin their fake relationship believing it will be one of the worst experiences ever, they end up surprising themselves when an unexpected event turns everything upside down, making them realize they have way more things in common then they thought...

Faking Love (Complete)
You know the old saying fake it til you make it? Well my best friend took that a little too seriously. Caitlyn came up with a crazy scheme to help me finally get the guy I had been crushing on for three years. Her plan was a little unorthodox to say the least. She decided that her and her boyfriend Colton should stage a break up so I could pretend to date him for a month. He was the quarterback of the football team and the most popular guy in school. She said dating him would make the guys at our school finally stop seeing me as a shy, undateable nerd. She said I would have my pick of any guy after that, including my crush Takashi. It was the most ridiculous plan I had ever heard of. There was no way anyone would actually believe me and Colton were dating. He was the quarterback of the football team. It would have probably been easier to convince the whole school that I was dating the President. The problem was, I knew she was right. It was probably the only way I could get Takashi (my crush) to see me as girlfriend material and I wanted that more than anything in the world. Plus, Caitlyn's crazy schemes usually worked and I was desperate, so I reluctantly agreed to it. The weirdest part of the whole thing was, her boyfriend Colton used to be my best friend before him and her started dating and she gradually took his place as my best friend. That was four years ago and him and I weren't near as close as we used to be. Now he was just my best friend's boyfriend. CONTENT WARNING: Very mature themes & sexual content - 18+ only!

Let's Pretend
"I need you to be my fake girlfriend". He paused allowing me to process what he just said. I rubbed my eyes trying to see if I was in a dream. Nope real.

Or maybe out the window. "W-what. That makes no type of sense." I stuttered out. I pushed myself off the bed and turned my body to face Hayden. "Yes. She's jealous of you. So if she sees I went to you, then she'll want to get back with me." He looked at me. "Please. Let's pretend that we're dating. Let's pretend that we like each in that kinda of way."
