Faking It is an American romantic comedy television series.

Canon

At Hester High School in the suburbs of Austin, being different is popular. After many failed attempts to stand out, Karma Ashcroft and her best friend Amy Raudenfeld are invited to a house party hosted by popular gay student Shane Harvey, who is under the impression that the girls are a lesbian couple.
At the party they are subsequently outed as the school's first lesbian couple and unwillingly nominated for homecoming Queens. Continuing the charade as their popularity soars, Karma attracts the attention of the popular and handsome Liam Booker, while Amy becomes aware of her growing romantic feelings for Karma and a rivalry with her new step-sister, Lauren, who discovers that they're faking it.
