Kaylee never wanted to be popular. Not once she discovered the true meaning of it.
After the abrupt divorce of her parents, Kaylee is relocated to her mother's hometown, Stratonville, and ripped away from every sense of normality she had. With her arrival at her new school, Rose Walden High, Kaylee hopes to rid herself of one thing any girl would kill to have: popularity. However, fate has a way of twisting things. Her reckless thinking and friendly disposition take her on a roller coaster to the top of the infamous social ladder. And being thrown into the center of attention, Kaylee thinks her plan can't detour any further.
Only, it does.
Greeted by a not-so-familiar face of an.. acquaintance, things are about to get messy for her. Still, Kaylee is sure she can handle all of this. That is, until an unfortunate skill of hers resurfaces-
Her tendency of making people fall for her.

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!
