About
Golden boy. Party king. Trust fund brat.
That's what they call me-Lee Sterling, Oakmount University's favorite disaster.
Everyone thinks they know me, but they only see what I let them.
I'm the guy who can charm his way out of anything and never takes life seriously. But it's all a ruse. They don't see the mask I wear or the cage of family expectations slowly threatening to suffocate me.
Three months. That's how long I have to find someone "suitable" to present at the Sterling New Year's Gala, or it's over.
I tell myself I can handle it, like I handle everything else-with a smile and a shot of bourbon-but deep down, I know I'm inching closer and closer to the edge.
Then I meet Salem Masters in a dark pantry at a party, and suddenly, nothing feels simple anymore.
They call her crazy and broken. The girl who wears latex gloves and counts her steps.
I call her beautiful, careful, haunted.
One encounter and I'm obsessed. I need to know more about her. I need to know if she's just like me.
When I discover we share a common interest, I convince her to be my fake girlfriend. She could use the protection, and I need to convince my family I'm normal...but when our fake relationship turns real, I discover just how close to danger I am.
Because for the first time in my life, I want something that I can't have, that I don't deserve.
