Rising
star Cassie Mae introduces New Adult readers to a practical soon-to-be college
freshman who seems to have everything—until a special guy shows her what
she’s been missing.
In the wealthy town of Sundale, Kelli Pinkins has hatched the perfect plan to capitalize on her sweet reputation. For a generous fee, she will be every trust-fund baby’s dream: a Friday-night alibi, the “girlfriend” or “BFF” that parents dream about. With college approaching in the fall, Kelli’s services are in demand more than ever, which means that her social life is nonexistent. But Kelli is A-okay with that. She’s raking in cash for school. Besides, relationships are tricky, and sometimes very messy. She’d rather be at home on Xbox LIVE, anyway. Then the unexpected happens: She meets college stud Chase Maroney.
Chase isn’t like the preppy, privileged guys Kelli usually meets in Sundale. For starters, he’s twentysomething, always wears black, and he shoots back one-liners as fast as she can dish them out. But Kelli’s attempts to drive Chase away falter when she realizes that he treats her like he really knows her, like he cares about knowing her. When Kelli finally gives in to the delicious kiss she’s been fighting for so long, she faces a tough decision: make Chase a real-life boyfriend and risk her heart . . . or keep her clients and lose her first true love.

I could not put this book down. This was a complete swoon. I am toes to head in love with Kelli and
Chase. Kelli’s BFF, Sadie, is the
perfect supporting player with a heart of gold.
For a bunch of rich kids with trust funds, they are the kind of friends
everyone would love to have.
Unlike many NA books, there is no
hot, sweaty, steamy sex. Instead, this
is a story of discovering first love with all of the butterflies in the stomach,
will he/won’t he, do I want him to drama.
It was also downright hilarious. Ms.
Mae has produced a refreshing, unique love story.
I wish I hadn’t read this book, just
so I could discover it all over again!
