Description

For Daphne, senior year was supposed to be perfect. Instead, she is drowning in rumours and ruined friendships. To save face, she commits to a perfect performance: a suitable relationship with Matthew. It’s the ultimate attempt to control a life that is rapidly spinning out of control.

But the most devastating loss is Eloise, her former best friend. Daphne believes Eloise abandoned her, unaware the bond was broken under false pretenses.

As Daphne navigates a journey of self-discovery, heartbreak, and delicate truths, she realizes the hardest part of being fake isn’t fooling others—it’s fooling herself. The closer Daphne gets to securing false peace, the further she drifts from her real feelings. Soon she realizes her heart belongs where it shouldn’t, but every step toward honesty is a risk of losing everything.

What happens when the truth you’re hiding is about the love you can’t live without?
