Gingerbread Masks: It's a Cookie-cutter Collegiate World Natalie Inger

Gingerbread Masks exposes some of the truths behind the myths of common college culture. Nineteen-year-old Hannah Summer Spearman was slightly disenchanted with college life, until she met Ivan. Ivan Boishnevekov, a fellow student at Huckman Oak University and member of one of the most popular fraternities at the school, is a boy who would do anything to fit into his new college identity. Ivan is a delightfully entertaining and colorfully offbeat character, who downplays his rich Russian family heritage to better blend into his surroundings at one of the most All-American-apple-pies of universities. Hannah and Ivan find each other and engage in an unlikely romance; a romance that is challenged, tested, and tormented by the pressures of fraternity life. Despite their differences; by a twist of fate; the two keep finding their way back to one another, fighting a constant battle against the fickle and fleeting nature of the college dating scene. The only question is: How much drama can Hannah take before she breaks?
