Forever to Fall For Me

Falling in love was never part of the plan. Bailey Brooksfield has enough on her plate—an overbearing aunt, relentless mean girl Nikki Cooper, and a high school experience full of unwanted drama. But when a moment of impulse leads her to kiss football captain Tyler Hall, the two strike a deal: a fake relationship to save face. What starts as a simple arrangement quickly spirals into something real. Bailey finds herself falling—hard. But with every whispered rumor, every spilt tea, and every warning glare, she wonders if love is really worth the chaos. When Tyler's father delivers an ultimatum that could shatter his future, Bailey is forced to make an impossible choice: risk their love or protect his dreams. She always thought love would be like the stories in her favorite books—magical, effortless, perfect. But maybe real love is messier than she ever imagined.
