The First Loves

But...is it even fake dating if he doesn't know it's happening? As far as first days at a new school goes, Addie's is the worst. She's accused of being a narc, stealing a boyfriend, and starting a fight—and that's just before lunch. On top of that, she's snagged the attention of the school's most popular jerk and he won't take a hint. But worst of all? Rumors start flying that she's the property of Vincent, the terrifying bad boy. It's not true, obviously. They've just been partnered together since they're both new to school. But when being known as Vincent's girl helps to keep the haters at bay, what's a girl to do but go along with it? Yes, he's intimidating, and sure, the way he looks at her makes her shiver. But it's only one little lie. And he doesn't even need to know... The new girl Addie? She's weird. That's all Vincent knows for sure. Other than that, he's completely confused. Why is she always smiling and laughing like he's just said something funny? She's also super clingy. And everywhere he turns. Is it possible that the sweet, innocent girl next door has a crush on the guy from juvie? No way. But their so-called relationship does wonders to anger his newfound family. So yeah, sure. Why not play along? It's not like anyone will get hurt. No matter what happens, he's bound and determined to leave this town. And no girlfriend, fake or otherwise, is going to change his mind. Not even if she's the closest he's ever come to having a home.
