Some histories are written in fire and steel. Others are written in the quiet, devastating choice to stay. And this time, the past may demand more than my courage, it may demand my future.

Um acordo inusitado. Um amor que deveria ser falso. E cores e galáxias que nunca deixaram de colidir... Erin passou os últimos quatro anos vivendo de promessas: à universidade, à bolsa de estudos e, principalmente, ao irmão que sacrificou tudo para que ela pudesse se formar. Errar não é uma opção ⎯ não agora, às vésperas da conclusão do curso. Quando um imprevisto ameaça destruir seu trabalho final, Erin recorre à única pessoa capaz de ajudá-la: Jake Young. O problema é que Jake não é apenas o irmão do responsável pelo desastre ⎯ é também alguém que ela evita desde que amizade e ressentimento passaram a ocupar o mesmo espaço. Jake aceita ajudá-la, mas exige algo em troca: que Erin viaje com ele e finja ser sua namorada por quarenta e cinco dias, durante as férias de verão. Um acordo simples. Regras claras. Nenhum envolvimento real. Ou pelo menos era o plano. Entre convivência forçada, promessas difíceis de sustentar e um passado que insiste em ressurgir, Erin percebe que fingir sentimentos pode ser mais arriscado do que nunca tê-los admitido. Alguns acordos salvam futuros. Outros colocam o coração em risco. +14 Ilustração da capa: Tory Composição e tipografias: Canva Texto não revisado.
