Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading and slightly altered by Coffee, Books & Lipgloss
Basically a CBL TEASER TUESDAY works like this:
• Grab your current read• Share 2 “teaser” sentences from a random page or a part you rather enjoyed and post it as a teaser.• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! Make sure that what you sharedoesn’t give too much away; you don’t want to ruin the book for others!• As an option, you can give a short snippet of what you think so far... or not. That's optional.• Share the TITLE and AUTHOR too, so that other participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teaser.
For this week's Teaser Tuesday: *drum roll*

Synopsis: Nineteen-year-old Cheyenne tries to portray the perfect life to mask the memories of her past. Walking in on her boyfriend with another woman her freshman year in college threatens that picture of perfection.
Twenty-one-year-old Colt never wanted college and never expected to amount to anything, but when his mom's dying wish is for him to get his degree, he has no choice but to pretend it's what he wants too.
Cheyenne needs a fake boyfriend to get back at her ex and Colt needs cash to take care of his mom, so they strike a deal that helps them both. But what if Cheyenne’s past isn’t what she thought? Soon they’re trading one charade for another—losing themselves in each other to forget about their pain. The more they play their game, the more it becomes the only thing they have that feels real.

Cheyenne needs a fake boyfriend to get back at her ex and Colt needs cash to take care of his mom, so they strike a deal that helps them both. But what if Cheyenne’s past isn’t what she thought? Soon they’re trading one charade for another—losing themselves in each other to forget about their pain. The more they play their game, the more it becomes the only thing they have that feels real.
Both Cheyenne and Colt know life is never easy, but neither of them expect the tragedy that threatens to end their charade and rip them apart forever.
Teaser:
"I don't really want to be your girlfriend! It's a charade. Hello? I would figure that much would be obvious."
Thoughts so far:
Wow, I really didn't expect that. I thought the offer would come from a really subtle way, not from shouting it in the middle of the road.
But come on, Colt! You gotta do it. Cheyenne's ex-boyfriend is an asshole and you need to help her show him what he lost.
