About this ebook

A deliciously charming novel about finding true love . . . and yourself.

Nothing ever happens in Little, CA. Which is just the way 17-year-old Carter Moon likes it. But when Hollywood arrives to film a movie starring former child star-turned public relations mess Adam Jakes, everything changes. Utterly annoyed, Carter feels like the only girl not buying what Hollywood's selling. Then Carter gets an offer she can't refuse: play the part of Adam's girlfriend while he's in Little, to improve his public image, and take home a hefty paycheck, which her family desperately needs. So instead of a summer hanging out with friends and working, Carter begrudgingly poses for the tabloids but soon finds that Adam isn't who she thought. Worse yet, she might actually be falling for him. As they grow closer, their relationship walks a blurry line between what's real and what's fake; and Carter must open her eyes to the scariest of unexplored worlds - her future. Can Carter figure out what she wants out of life AND get the boy? Or are there no Hollywood endings in real life?

Ratings and reviews

I love this book! It shows many things about finding yourself, true love, and everything Carter finds in the way, I've read it twice and planning on reading it even more! I can't wait to read more of Kim's books! You just know that they love each-other. You just wish that this story went on and on, I really love reading but there is only one book I have read more than this one, Serendidy and me, and that book is touching too, but I might actually like this one more, because it was about a year ago when I read it. I really hope a second one will come out telling me about Carter and adam's story.

It gives us what we all want in real life. Someone who loves us for us. To show us fake doesn't always stay fake. Yah I'm looking to much into this book. Great book!!!

I have read this book 8 times since I got it and I never get tired of it. Its totally worth 9.99, u should buy it. Its WONDERFUL!!
