The Study Date

A fake dating college romance with slow-burn tension, forced proximity, and rules that were never meant to last.

Mira only needed one thing:
to protect her scholarship and survive the semester.

Ethan needed nothing-
until a lie in a crowded room turned him into her fake boyfriend.

What was supposed to be a temporary arrangement quickly becomes impossible to control.
Late-night study sessions. Shared glances. A campus that watches-and assumes-everything.

The rules were simple:
no feelings.
no attachment.
no crossing lines.

But fake dating is easy only on paper.

As rumors spread and expectations grow, pretending starts to feel real.
And when walking away hurts more than staying, the question isn't whether the lie will break-

It's how much it will cost when the truth comes out.
