Fake Dates and Other Mistakes

Elysa Degras' junior year has been off to a rocky start. Soccer practices have been kicking her butt, her advanced math class has been really kicking her butt, and her history teacher just blackmailed her into joining the school's (ultra nerdy) Quiz Bowl team. And if all of that wasn't bad enough, her recent attraction to her best friend has also been complicating her life. Especially since she went and lied about it, blurting some preposterous nonsense about a boyfriend to try and explain all her recent weird behavior. To try and salvage the situation, she enlisted the help of one of her brother's friends, but there's something more than a little suspicious about Luke Haywood, and it's not just his unnerving ability to act like a real boyfriend. She's almost positive he's hiding something, and with everything else spiraling dangerously out of control, she can't afford to leave his secret alone.
