I'LL PRETEND YOU'RE MINE

Summer Ali is young, lonely, and was living a tame pop star life not her own. Until she's is eighteen, old enough to make a wild name for herself -- and if it's with a notorious bad boy with whom she must fake a relationship to do so.

Summer Ali has been making a name for herself in the music industry for years, slowly but surely climbing the charts but the world doesn't know her stage parents are the ones who molded her entire public persona. Finally eighteen, Summer breaks free of their control and focuses on creating her own path. Upon running into writer's block, Summer grows eager to take any opportunity to shake things upeven if it means agreeing to a PR stunt with child-actor-turned-playboy, Jules Moradi, famous for his tabloid escapades. At first, Jules keeps his distance, maintaining professional boundaries. But as time passes, his walls come down, and Summer uncovers who he is beyond his reputation, and it's someone more like her than she ever realized. As the lines blur between fake and real, Summer begins questioning who she is and what she wants and if her dreams are worth sacrificing her heart.
