──────────JULIET BARNSTEAD did everything she could to fit in. She went to the occasional party, kept away from drugs as much as possible, but didn't shy too far away from alcohol and what kids these days call "having a good time". She had a steady job, one that could keep her going until she left the Outer Banks for college, where her life was written for her by the time she graduated. That's why Rafe Cameron liked her so much ─ Juliet was nothing like him.
It sucked for Rafe when Juliet's parents wrenched her away from him, so she could go back to focusing on what mattered ─ studying molecular biology, not the science behind making out. Some might say they were a doomed couple anyway. A boy not far off being diagnosed as a psychopath, with raging daddy issues and more money than he knew what to do with. And a girl with good manners, from a good family with just about enough to keep them going, and her head set on an Ivy League school, where a good career was guaranteed at the other end. But Rafe didn't care what other people thought. He needed that lifeline that Juliet provided for him. An escape for whatever Ward Cameron wanted to set his son up for.
But her parents had other ideas. And did not want their valedictorian, clean record daughter to get caught up in any mess where Rafe Cameron was involved. And the two parted ways ─ Rafe not far off from a life of crime, now that Juliet, his anchor that was always there to bring him back to a sober, obedient Earth, was out of his life. And Juliet, cursing her parents' names for taking the one aspect of her life away that didn't make her teenage existence seem like a tragic draught, dry of fun and excitement.
Now single, another summer rolls around, and Rafe can't stop fucking up. Keeping it a secret from her parents, Juilet won't let Rafe spiral into a never-ending loop, that will eventually suffocate him until someone throws him in jail for life. But knowing his father, there was no way Ward Cameron would let his son get any kind of punishment ─ deserving or not.
And herein lies the problem ─ manipulative, and emotionally abusive Ward Cameron has always been Rafe's downfall. Rafe wanted nothing more in life than to please his father. And Juliet knew it. So when Officer Peterkin is killed at the hand of Rafe Cameron, leading to the beginning of his road of madness, Juliet is trapped at her own crossroad ─ turn him in, or help clear his name.
