Synopsis

According to the guys at Fairfield Academy, there are two types of girls: the kind you hook up with, and the kind you’re friends with. Seventeen-year-old Alyssa Reed is the second type. And she hates it. With just one year left to change her rank, she devises a plan to become the first type by homecoming, and she sets her sights on the perfect date—Justin Carter, Fairfield Academy’s biggest hottie and most notorious player.

With 57 days until the dance, Aly launches Operation Sex Appeal and sheds her tomboy image. The only thing left is for Justin actually to notice her. Enter best friend Brandon Taylor, the school’s second biggest hottie, and now Aly’s pretend boyfriend. With his help, elevating from “funny friend” to “tempting vixen” is only a matter of time.

But when everything goes according to plan, the inevitable “break up” leaves their friendship in shambles, and Aly and Brandon with feelings they can’t explain. And the fake couple discovers pretending can sometimes cost you the one thing you never expected to want.

Why am I waiting?

Okay, I love Rachel Harris, a lot. All her writing is just amazing and this being a YA contemporary yes please. I am so excited especially with some of the teasers that she is sharing. Also I adore the cover!

Top Ten Characters Who Stole My Heart

Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 2 Comments

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. All bloggers are then welcomed to join. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Characters Who X. Fill in the blank — examples: piss me off, are the popular kids, are bookish, would be my bff, that stole my heart, etc. etc.

Here are my Top Ten Character who have stole my heart in one way or another. These are in no particular order.

1. Augustus Waters from The Fault in our Stars: He is charming, knows just what to say and would take a girl around the world. I cannot explain how much Augustus stole my heart expect (if you know what happens) I was sobbing like a baby.

2. Rose Hathaway from Vampire Academy: I love Rose, she is fierce, strong and always stands up for friends, by her just being like that, she immediately stole my heart. There is something about her.

3. VA Boys, Dimitri, Christian, Eddie and Adrian: All four of these boys have captured my heart one way or another. Richelle Mead knows how to write males that just wow you.

4. Raffe from Angelfall: I loved Raffe from the first time that he is introduced to us in Angelfall, he tries to hid his feelings but we can see right through me. He is a survivor, even when all seems lost he tries his best.

5. Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter: Luna doesn’t care about what people think of her, she is herself all the time. She taught me that being yourself is much more interesting then being someone else.

6. Cas from Anna Dressed in Blood: Cas is sweet like the guy next door, but he knows how to fight and stand up for what he believes in. He is so adorable.

7. Noah from Pushing the Limits: Noah is like the ‘bad boy’ but as we get to know him, he is so much more. His story captures you and he captured me, he stole my heart and I felt for him in so many ways.
8. Ethan from The Here and Now: Ethan is just so caring, he will do anything Prenna. The way he cares and shows how he feels is why Ethan stole my heart.

9. Perry from Under the Never Sky: Perry, Perry, Perry, there isn’t much to say about him just apart that I love him.

10. Patch from Hush Hush: Patch is another one of those ‘bad boys’ but deep down he cares so much. Yes he does things that annoy the hell out of me but then I understand why. Patch is just sexy and will steal your heart.

So those are my top ten characters who stole my heart. Who stole yours? What is your Top Ten this week.
