Seventeen-year-old Emily has always known exactly who she is: a London girl with a passion for photography and a one-way ticket to her dream university in Los Angeles. But life is never that easy. Her dad agreed she could only go to South California University as long as she studies Law. When she arrives in sunny California, her carefully constructed world is thrown into chaos. Enter Caleb, the effortlessly cool yet insurance frat boy with a smile that could melt glaciers, and Connor, the nerdy, do-good'er film student.
As she finds herself drawn to both Caleb and Connor, she begins to question her wants and desires. Now, caught between the familiar comfort of a boy she could easily fall for and the exhilarating uncertainty of a frat who ignites a fire within her, Emily must confront her feelings. In a city where dreams are made, Emily is about to discover that love can be the most unexpected adventure of all. But who will she choose when her heart is divided in two?

Especially since she went and lied about it, blurting some preposterous nonsense about having a secret boyfriend to try and explain all her recent weird behavior. In an attempt to salvage the situation and save her friendship, she decides to enlist the help of one of her brother's friends to pose as her new boyfriend, but there's something more than a little suspicious about Luke Haywood, and it's not just his unnerving ability to make their relationship seem a little too real.
