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.<br /><br /><em>Karina is my girlfriend.</em><br /><br />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 <em>week</em>) 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.<br /><br />T-minus twenty-eight days until everything returns to normal--but what if Karina no longer wants it to?<br /><br /><strong>"I.
