ALISON O'BRIEN isn't a notorious mean girl, she's just not exactly known for her sweet and loving personality. She's not bubbly and sweet like her friend Claire Biggs, or as brave and witty as Lizzie Young. She's certainly no where near as strong and pure-hearted as her other friend Shannon Lynch, or as kind and talented as Katie Wilmot. Most of all, Allie is nothing like her cool, amazing, perfect, sister, Maeve. Alison has always believed herself to be just sort of... there.
PATRICK FEELY is tired of playing second to his best friend, Hughie Biggs. Patrick could have any girl he wanted, really, but the ones he truly liked always ended up with Hugh. It was a sad history in his life and Patrick is determined to not let the history repeat itself... again.
Alison and Patrick come up with a plan which they believe will solve all their problems, pretending to date each other.

AUTHORS NOTE + DISCLAIMER Thank you for choosing this story!! FYI it's been two years since I started the Boys of Tommen series and over a year since I read the most recent publication in the series, that means my memory of certain things are hazy. This fanfic isn't going to fit exactly anywhere in the pre-existing timeline just know it takes place sometime after taming 7 and might not fit perfectly into the context. As well as that, I would like to say that I don't own any characters other than Alison and her family, the rest belong to Chloe Walsh, the author of the BOT series.
