Alyssa Evans is the cutest and sweetest girl ever. She's the kind of girl that all the guys go for. She's the kind of girl that all the girls want to be. You could say that she's perfect - it's what everyone else thinks. All the girls at Stevens' High envy Alyssa and her perfection. She has everything - the perfect parents, the best brother, an amazing house, cool clothes, perfect grades, and most importantly, the most loyal and cutest guy ever, her best friend Ricky Woods.

*****

Richard "Ricky" Woods knows all of Alyssa's secrets. He knows what everyone else doesn't. He knows that Alyssa is living a lie. That smile she always has on her face? It's mostly always fake. Those perfect grades she has? It's only necessary so she can go to college on scholarship. Those perfect parents? Her dad spends all the family's money on booze and her mom is workaholic, so she's never home. And her brother? He's a drunk who likes to abuse Alyssa for no reason. Ricky's been with Alyssa since they were kids. He's always there for her. It seems as though they're a couple, but they're really not. They're just a little too close to each other.

*****

What'll happen when one of them falls for the other? Will they confess and will it all work out? Or will they simple keep quiet and try to move on?
