The Real Thing

"Enemies to Lovers has always been my favorite trope. A quick, fun romance with lots of tension and angst."

The Real Thing is a heart-fluttery, opposites attract, enemies-to-lovers, offbeat young adult sweet contemporary romance, perfect for fans of Maggie Dallen and Emma St. Clair.

When a rumor causes their two different worlds to cross unexpectedly, popular jock Luke and school nerd Avery must find a way to deal. But in the process, they might just find something more...

Avery Winters is passionate about science and the environment. Sure, she's never been on a real date before, but then again, she's much too sensible to bother with those types of things.

Luke Taylor is passionate about sports. And girls. So of course, he's been on a date with practically every other girl in school.

There would have been absolutely no way that they would be in each other's lives. Except until that one night, at that one bar, with that one dare, which led to that one rumor – which changed everything.

The Real Thing is part of the Campus Players series, a collection of YA contemporary romance standalones that can be read in any order.
