Aria Bellamy and Wesley Thorne have competed for everything-class rank, debate championships, even student council elections. So when a prestigious Ivy League donor announces an all-expenses-paid scholarship for the student who best embodies "leadership and character," Aria and Wesley are all in.
The problem? The donor loves heartwarming stories, and thanks to a series of unfortunate coincidences, everyone believes Aria and Wesley are childhood sweethearts who recently reconnected. The donor is thrilled. Their parents are thrilled. Their teachers are thrilled. And to keep up the lie, Aria and Wesley are forced into a whirlwind of "romantic" springtime activities-picnic dates, tutoring little kids, and attending a ridiculous garden party.
But somewhere between fake hand-holding and stolen glances in the rain, the rivalry starts to feel like something else. Something real. And neither of them knows what to do about it.
