This Time Its Real

When seventeen-year-old Eliza Lins essay about meeting the love of her life unexpectedly goes viral, her entire life changes overnight. Now she has the approval of her classmates at her new international school in Beijing, a career-launching internship opportunity at her favourite magazine ... and a massive secret to keep.

Eliza made her essay up. Shes never been in a relationship before, let alone in love. All good writing is lying, right

Desperate to hide the truth, Eliza strikes a deal with the famous actor in her class, the charming but aloof Caz Song. Shell help him write his college applications if he poses as her boyfriend. Caz is a dream boyfriend -- he passes handwritten notes to her in class, makes her little sister laugh, and takes her out on motorcycle rides to the best snack stalls around the city.

But when her relationship with Caz starts feeling a little too convincing, all of Elizas carefully laid plans are threatened. Can she still follow her dreams if it means breaking her own heart

A total delight. Laugh out loud funny, sweet, and romantic, this is a sparkling gem of a book. MEG CABOT, author of the Princess Diaries series and No Words
