Lessons In Faking (Hall Beck University)

About this book

Athalia Pressley is desperate to mend her fractured relationship with her twin brother, Henry, but years of estrangement have left them worlds apart. Her luck shifts when she is assigned a tutor for her statistics class: Dylan McCarthy, the campus golden boy and Henry’s sworn enemy. When Athalia realizes that Dylan’s presence is the only thing capable of capturing her brother’s attention, she proposes a reckless deal. She and the arrogant, infuriatingly attractive Dylan will enter into a fake-dating arrangement to keep her firmly in Henry’s orbit. They draft a strict contract with clear boundaries—including a firm "no falling in love" clause—but the plan begins to crumble the moment their tutoring sessions transform into elaborate, staged dates. As the lines between their performance and reality blur, Athalia discovers that the boy Henry despises is becoming impossible to resist. Caught between her loyalty to her twin and the undeniable spark she feels for the boy on her "do not date" list, Athalia faces an impossible dilemma. She must decide whether to protect the bond she’s fought so hard to restore or risk everything for a love that feels terrifyingly, wonderfully real.
