Book Description
Publication Date: October 28, 2013
The rules are clear—until they’re broken. Lauren Layne puts a New Adult spin on Pygmalion, also the inspiration for Pretty Woman, and gives the classic love story its edgiest twist yet.
Stephanie Kendrick gave up her whole summer to ace her NYU film school screenwriting course, so she’s pissed to be stuck with a preppy, spoiled frat boy as her writing partner. Then again, with her piercings, black-rimmed eyes, and Goth wardrobe, Stephanie isn’t exactly Ethan Price’s type, either. He’s probably got his eye on some leggy blonde with a trust fund . . . or does he?
As the summer scene kicks off in the Hamptons, Ethan is desperate to make his snobbish mother forget the pedigreed girl who broke his heart. While Stephanie’s a stretch as a decoy, the right makeover and a pastel cardigan just might do the trick. She may not love the idea of playing Ethan’s brainless Barbie girlfriend, but the free rent and luxurious digs make a tempting offer. So does the promise of a ready-made screenplay idea inspired by their charade.
But when Stephanie steps into Ethan’s privileged world, the “acting” begins to feel all too real. The kissing and touching that were intended to fool the Hamptons crowd wind up manipulating them. And Stephanie faces a question she’s too afraid to ask: Is Ethan falling for the real her or for the dolled-up princess he wants to see?
“Who knew that pretending you’re not falling for someone would be so much more difficult than pretending that you are?”

My favorite new adult book is Wait For You by J.Lynn!
ReplyDeleteThey are good stories that are not too heavy.
ReplyDeleteFirst book that comes to mind I'd have to say TRUE by Erin McCarthy.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Linda just above me. I hate erotica so NA fits the bill
ReplyDeleteThey are good stories that are not too heavy.
ReplyDeleteThere are some good stories that are a lot edgier than YA.
ReplyDeleteI like that the stories aren't so heavy to read and they are easy to relate to. :)
ReplyDeleteI really love that New Adult is relatable.

ReplyDeleteNew adult is perfect... not young adult, not erotica. A good in-between!
