College has rules. I broke three in one night.
Don’t trespass in a university building. Don’t kiss your brother’s best friend. And definitely don’t get caught doing both at the same time.
Now, thanks to a very inconvenient security camera, I owe sixty hours of community service… with Alfie Spencer, the brooding, infuriating, unfairly hot geology nerd I’ve secretly wanted for years.
And just when I think things can’t get worse? He asks me to pretend to be his girlfriend to keep his powerful, impossibly rich family off his back.
The arrangement is simple:
Fake a relationship to fool his parents. Sell it like our lives depend on it. Absolutely do not fall for him. But every time he looks at me, I feel it everywhere.
Every time he touches me, I forget we’re pretending.
Because this was never supposed to feel real. Because Alfie Spencer doesn’t do love. Because when this ends… I’m not sure I’ll survive it.
Book 2 in the University of Mountain Springs series – but can be read as a standalone.
