The last thing she expected was to be the pretend girlfriend of Jason Turner. Jason needs a pretend girlfriend to keep the high school drama as far away as possible. Amber Johnson needs the social acceptance being Jason’s girlfriend would give her. It’s only for a few weeks. Just long enough to get everyone to back off. Amber quickly learns though. There is nothing worse than pretending to be in love with someone you already love. One Night Good girl Jennifer Brewster has to share a motel room with bad boy Nick Parsons on Christmas Eve. Everything she has ever been taught told Jennifer to avoid boys like Nick. Boys with fast cars, hot looks, and a long trail of broken hearts. But when she is abandoned half way across the state, Nick is her only chance to get home before Christmas. They might have made it. But a winter storm closes the only road home. The only solution; sharing a motel room. Can Jennifer make it through the night without falling in love? Did she even want to?

All that mattered was that Marla Turner was as far out of bounds as a girl could get. Worlds Apart Ruby Miller is perfectly aware that Luke Sinclair has that whole secret superman thing going on.

They might be worlds apart. But somehow, this wild child and this Lakeland boy will find a way to bring their worlds together.
