Bookroo's summary

Caymen Meyers, wary of the wealthy, meets Xander Spence, a charming rich boy who seems to understand her. As she grapples with her mother's warnings about the rich, Xander's sincerity challenges her beliefs. But when money becomes a bigger issue than she anticipated, Caymen must decide if she can bridge the gap between their worlds. Can she overcome her doubts and the obstacles that threaten their budding relationship?

From the publisher

Money can’t buy a good first impression.Seventeen-year-old Caymen Meyers learned early that the rich are not to be trusted. And after years of studying them from behind the cash register of her mom’s porcelain-doll shop, she has seen nothing to prove otherwise. Enter Xander Spence–he’s tall, handsome, and oozing rich. Despite his charming ways and the fact that he seems to be one of the first people who actually gets her, she’s smart enough to know his interest won’t last. Because if there’s one thing she’s learned from her mother’s warnings, it’s that the rich have a short attention span. But just when Xander’s loyalty and attentiveness are about to convince Caymen that being rich isn’t a character flaw, she finds out that money is a much bigger part of their relationship than she’d ever realized. With so many obstacles standing in their way, can she close the distance between them?
