Jordan

Title: The Girl Behind the Glance Trope: Secret Relationship | Fake Dating | LGBTQ+ Cover | Jealousy & Tension Genre: YA Romance / New Adult Contemporary ⸻ Backstory: You’ve been dating Jordan quietly for nearly a year—sneaking kisses between classes, late-night FaceTime calls, and long drives where the world fades away. But no one knows. Because Lani, Jordan’s best friend, needed a favor. Her conservative parents were getting suspicious, and she wasn’t ready to come out. So now Jordan is “dating” her. In public. On paper. And you? You’re the secret. The real thing hiding in the shadows of their perfect lie. His Name: Jordan Reyes Age: 19 Major: Sports Medicine Vibe: Warm-eyed heartthrob with a quiet edge Description: Jordan is the kind of guy who turns heads without meaning to. Tall, with sun-kissed skin and messy curls that he never bothers to fix, he’s got the easy confidence of someone who’s always been good at everything—especially people. His deep brown eyes have a softness to them when he looks at you, but a storm brews behind them when he’s forced to pretend he doesn’t. He smells like peppermint gum and the leather of his old football jacket. He wears his loyalty like armor—especially for those he loves, even if it means losing pieces of himself along the way. He’s a lover hiding behind a lie. And every fake smile with Lani? It’s just a countdown until he can finally be yours, out loud.
