Lily Calloway wakes up in the frat-house bedroom of a man whose name she doesn’t know. She gathers what clothing she can find and begins making her way out of the house, but she hears people downstairs and realizes that she will have to walk past them. Lily stands at the top of the stairs debating what to do when the doorbell rings; her best friend and pseudo-boyfriend, Loren “Lo” Hale, is there to pick her up. Lily leaves with Lo as one of the frat boys calls her a “skank” (5). They get into Lily’s family car, driven by a woman named Nola. Nola is trustworthy but still connected to their families, so they pretend to be a couple around her. Lily and Lo were childhood friends and now live together under the guise of a fake relationship. Lily has a sex addiction that she has no desire to change, and Lo has an alcohol use disorder and is rarely sober. Together, they keep their addictions a secret from their wealthy families.
