So great, in fact, that she???s in three of them. Why choose between the suave debate team captain, the charming indie filmmaker, and the tennis star when she can be with them all? The catch? None of them know about each other. It works perfectly. They???re in love with her???or the versions of her that they get. Amy. Ellie. Mia. And she???s in love with the lavish dinners, fancy yacht trips, and expensive gifts. Times three. But schemes always get complicated, don???t they? When Amelia's best friend ends up dead, her alleged murder shocks their placid beachside city. And soon, Amelia's carefully planned relationships start to dangerously unravel.In a fit of desperation, Amelia teams up with her academic nemesis Jackie, the editor-in-chief of the school newspaper and a self-proclaimed true crime junkie, to get to the bottom of this.After all, Amelia needs to keep her boyfriends close and her enemies closer if she wants to keep her scam???and herself???afloat.
