«This Time for Real» — a cozy story about first love and fake relationships in a Chinese setting. In the new novel by Ann Liang — the author of the bestsellers «I Hope You Don't Read This» and «Invisible Alice Sun» — you will find the beloved trope of «enemies to lovers», school days in Beijing, vibrant characters, humor, and tender romance. And the stylish cover by Anastasia Mitryushina and atmospheric page design will make reading even cozier and more aesthetic.
I, Eliza Lin, suddenly became famous. My post about relationships went viral. Now everyone thinks I'm unmatched in matters of love. The truth is, it's all a lie, as I'm not even dating anyone.
How lucky I am to have come across Kaz Song — a movie star and the school's main heartthrob, who desperately needs help. We strike a deal: he pretends to be my boyfriend, and I help him write his college entrance essay.
Thus, our worlds collide. With each passing day, I become more convinced that beneath the mask of an arrogant celebrity lies someone who could be the love of my life. Will our fake relationship turn real, or will my heart be broken?
