In a fading coastal town where tension sink deeper than the tide, Ella has always been close to both Ezra and Lucas. Two brothers bound by blood, and slowly pulled apart by love. Ezra, brooding and distant, has always protected her. Luca, soft-hearted and reckless, has always adored her. But as they grow older, the lines between childhood loyalty and desire blur into something far more complex . Torn between the boy who makes her feel safe and the one who makes her feel alive, Ella must navigate the storm of love, betrayal, and the unraveling of a bond that once felt unbreakable. Because loving one might mean losing the other forever.

Madi's slumber party is suddenly terrorized by a harmless dare.

Imagine the second you're born, a consultant removes you from your mother's grasp and runs a battery of genetic and physiological tests on you. Thirty minutes later they give you a score out of one hundred which denotes your level of perfection. If your score is above eighty and you work hard to maintain that score you will have a charmed life; well fed, well-rewarded, spoiled. But fall below eighty and you're labelled Flawed, and life will not be so kind. Hannah is adopted by a Flawed family when her birth parents choose their social standing over their daughter and endures a life of struggle, hunger and service. One day Hannah is escorted to the regional government office and told that the Consultant who delivered her, who labelled her Flawed got it wrong! Now, she is being relocated back to her birth parents, to live as one of the Ninety-Five- all medically and legally judged as perfect. Entering this new life Hannah has an impossible decision to make which puts not only hers, but the lives of everyone she cares about at great risk.
