I'm looking for a book in which a girl compares here school life to fairytales. Kind of. I read it a while back, but never finshed and would like to now, but I don't know what's called. I know she grew up without her father, because he's dead, but she doesn't know that. And then there is this guy that she gives private lessons to and his sister gets cancer and he comes to her every night and smokes. I don't know amy names. But she goes to a private school and her mom raised her by herself. Thank you in advance for any helpful comments.

It might have also been him giving her private lessons, but they met at her place.
