Operation Boyfriend...

James has been badly hurt and his trust in women is at absolute zero. He’s vowed never to fall in love again. But despite his best efforts, he can’t seem to help himself being attracted to Celeste. She has her own trust issues going on and had built a wall around her heart - but there's something about James that has made that wall start to crumble...

I'd had some outlandish ideas in the past - pretending to be Faith's boyfriend to win back her ex was just one of them but this plan of Celeste's took some beating for just plain stupid... “She thinks I’m gay?” I cried indignantly. This really wasn't what I'd planned at all. Operation Boyfriend was supposed to get her to fall for me. How was that gonna happen if she thought I was into guys?

“Don’t die on me, Tyler, don't you dare die on me!” I closed my eyes. I didn’t deserve a friend like Vegas – I’d stopped being his mate almost overnight since he’d become an item with Daisy Oldham – and now I’d never have a chance to put things right again. Cue beautiful, brilliant Savannah, my tutor to stop me from failing - oh, and Daisy's best friend too, seems trouble followed me everywhere.

My name is Vegas McKenzie and I am officially a screw-up. It should be tattooed on my forehead, no seriously… Everyone thinks I have the most amazing girlfriend in the whole world. And you know – if you don’t scratch the surface too much, it’s kind of true – she is pretty incredible – she’s beautiful and smart and funny and sexy. So what’s the problem? Weren’t you paying attention? I am...
