Ruby Mayfield hates change. She loves her life the way it is - warm California, cheering Max on while she skates, helping her dad bake for his bakery, listening to Kate Bush with him. But everything changes when her mother cheats on him and finds out.
Suddenly, Ruby's life completely changes. Her parents divorce. Mom wins full custody over Ruby and Max, and Ruby grows to despise her mother. Ruby is forced to move to Hawkins Indiana with her mom's new boyfriend and his shitty, goddamn awful son Billy. Ruby's convinced she won't find anything good there, and her only goal is to act invisible until she graduates and can finally leave.
But then she meets Steve Harrington. The boy who braids her hair, dances to Kate Bush with her and watches chick flicks with her. And suddenly, Hawkins doesn't seem like a curse after all.
But Ruby Henderson was wrong. Hawkins was never a curse. She herself was.
And she was going to either be Steve Harrington's endgame, or she was going to be his Juliet and him her Romeo.
