It's only slightly awkward, he's her best friend's boyfriend (now), but she already had a date (previous boyfriend). The guy Bethany asked, turned her down flat, same with another one. Sooo, Jacob's going anyway to take pictures for yearbook...it works. But by the time the dance rolls around, Jacob's had his second break up this school year! A proposal is made-obviously, they have no clue what they are doing and need practice. They should practice together. Fake dating with rules and and end date (!) is arranged.
I loved the way the friendship developed between Jacob and Bethany. They shared more with each other than they did their friends or family members. They did a pretty good job of talking to one another about boundaries and consent. I also liked how they supported one another's activities and struggles. I am definitely buying this one for the high school....more
