“A reserved Bangladeshi teenager has twenty-eight days to make the biggest decision of her life after agreeing to fake date her school’s resident bad boy.
How do you make one month last a lifetime?
Karina Ahmed has a plan. Keep her head down, get through high school without a fuss, and follow her parents’ rules—even if it means sacrificing her dreams. When her parents go abroad to Bangladesh for four weeks, Karina expects some peace and quiet. Instead, one simple lie unravels everything.
Karina is my girlfriend.
Tutoring the school’s resident bad boy was already crossing a line. Pretending to date him? Out of the question. But Ace Clyde does everything right—he brings her coffee in the mornings, impresses her friends without trying, and even promises to buy her a dozen books (a week) if she goes along with his fake-dating facade. Though Karina agrees, she can’t help but start counting down the days until her parents come back.
T-minus twenty-eight days until everything returns to normal—but what if Karina no longer wants it to?” - taken from Goodreads.com
This was an incredible story about two students who seem to be complete opposites but actually fall in love while pretending to date. Karina is relieved when her super restrictive parents go away for a month and leave her grandmother to watch her and her brother. When her English teacher asks her to tutor the school’s resident bad boy, she is not thrilled. Karina soon realizes that Ace Clyde isn’t what he seems. Thrown together, the two soon discover that they have a lot in common. As their feelings grow deeper, Karina and Ace help each other work through their differences with their respective parents.
