Faking It Perfectly (Youthful Days Series #1)

Esperanza Kirsten Del Fuente never expected her transfer to a prestigious school to be anything more than another chapter in her already complicated life. With a fierce attitude and a knack for getting into trouble, she quickly becomes known for her rebellious spirit. A half-scholar on the archery team, she's no stranger to being an outsider, yet she thrives in her newfound world, finding strength in the stability of her happy family. Travis Darcy Montemayor, on the other hand, is the perfect example of what most people would consider "having it all." As the son of the governor, he's got wealth, power, and status-yet everything he's surrounded by feels hollow. Beneath his calm demeanor, there's a constant battle with his own loneliness, trapped in a family that only values appearances.

Their worlds collide when Kirsten's sharp words cut through the quiet façade Tracy has worked so hard to maintain, leading to a connection neither of them can ignore. Will Kirsten's sharp tongue finally make Tracy crack, or will he pull her into the world she swore she'd never belong to?
