there will be no keeping it from the editor of the school paper and this will jeopardize all her journalistic endeavors. so she comes up with a plan and suddenly alex finds himself agreeing to be her fake boyfriend. he’s half in love with her already, but she is completely oblivious even as she crushes on him right back.
and so, i'm a total sucker for a fake relationship story. and here these two are so sweet together. alex really struggles with his self-worth. he's got a really rough childhood to contend with and tries to live his life out by doing the opposite of what his parents did. they were awful people. and he nearly got sucked into their world, but he pulled himself out. and he doesn't see the strength and the goodness in himself, but cat sees it. she believes in him in a way no one else ever has.
and when it feels like everything in his life is going bad again, he cuts her out of it to protect her. failing to understand that by not allowing cat to make the choice, he's just become another guy who leaves her behind when it's inconvenient. like her dad, the root cause of her abandonment issues.
cat and alex deal with some tough, real-world issues and i love how they support and care for each other through them. this was a sweet contemporary ya.
