You Said I Was Your Favorite (Lancaster Prep, 5)

Archibald “Arch” Lancaster is smart. Handsome. He comes from a wealthy family. He’s got it all. But he’s also “the troublemaker. The reckless one. The impulsive one…He may be intelligent, but he can act stupid with the best of the Lancaster Prep boys. “Nice boys who come from good families. Rich boys with impeccable genes and pleasant smiles. Overachievers who might be intimidated by a girl who’s considered smarter than them.” Arch is also Daisy Mae Albright’s arch nemesis. Daisy is a Disney princess with a tragic backstory. “She’s sweet and smart and kind. She’s funny…She likes to read, especially romance books. Even though she loves Lancaster Prep and has lived here for years, she wants to go away to college because she wants something better for her life. And she wants to make [her father] proud.” But her classmates perceive her as “a pick-me girl…the type of girl who always acts like, ‘pick me, pick me,’” dying for someone to pay attention to her, to talk to her, to look at her. Because no one notices her. As the groundskeeper’s daughter, she walks around campus with her sunshiny attitude, her Anne of Green Gables braids, her plaid skirt and loafers and white lacy socks. But no one really sees her. Until Arch Lancaster. Daisy is like the roses she loves so much that can only grow when they’re fed and watered and bask in the light. Arch wants to be her light, so she can be his rose. But to him she’s unpickable. Daisy is the definition of a strong spirit: “when you believe in something, you don’t back down from it…She’s not just broke, she’s broken.” She has the power to break his heart or put the pieces back together and make him whole. “Arch and Daisy--they are a different vibe from the other Lancaster Prep books. There’s a hint of sadness thanks to Daisy’s circumstances, and they are opposites in every way, with only a few similarities. But they are so good for each other…The cover is relatively harmless—more like it’s downright cute—but the contents inside are pretty spicy.” Monica Murphy’s You Said I Was Your Favorite is 5 jalapeno worthy!
