Received a free copy of this book via NetGalley.com (thank you!) in exchange for an honest review.DNF @ around 30-35%When I find myself trying to find anything other to do than read a book, I figure it's time to give up on it. I didn't enjoy this one at all. I forced myself through the first 30%, then kept finding other things to read and I dreaded coming back to this one.The premise isn't realistically portrayed, the characters aren't interesting, and the writing is sloppy and juvenile.Basically, Kelli is "supposedly" a squeaky clean girl who sells herself as a fake girlfriend/date for the rich boys so they can impress their parents while dating slutty girls on the sly.The problem is that it just doesn't work. How does she maintain her squeaky clean reputation when she's dating a different rich kid every week? Also, considering she's supposed to be this super duper nice girl, she's got quite a mouth on her. She swears a lot, talks back, and overall comes across as a bratty teenager. Also, she is rich herself! She doesn't NEED to sell herself - her parents buy her $400 jeans and everything she wants. While I am cool with the concept of her wanting to make it on her own, she's basically one hop, skip, and a jump away from prostitution!As far as the romance, I just didn't like it. There wasn't any chemistry, I hate the stupid nicknames, and Kelli comes across like a complete witch half the time. I have no idea why Chase was even in to her.The one positive is that I liked that Kelli was an awesome Call of Duty player. That's about the only nice thing I can say about this novel.
