'𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑚𝑎𝑘𝑒 𝑚𝑒 𝑓𝑒𝑒𝑙, 𝐻𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑠. 𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝐼 𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑤𝑎𝑛𝑡 𝑡𝑜 𝑓𝑢𝑐𝑘𝑖𝑛' 𝑓𝑒𝑒𝑙.' Hailey McClair's used to playing second. Second to her brother's moods. Second to her sister's dramatics. Still, she has a knack for charm, a habit of control, and a perfectly practiced smile. She tries to forget, to keep things light, pretend she has her shit together - and for the most part she hides it pretty well. But Cook's never been fooled by her. Not really. He's the kind of boy she's spent her whole life avoiding. Loud. Reckless. Impossible. Beautiful in all the wrong ways. And worst of all, he's her brother's best friend. Cook's trouble. Freddie's trying to keep her safe. And Hailey's just trying to make sense of the noise. When you've spent years watching everyone else fall apart, maybe chaos starts to look a little like comfort.

𝐍𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐇𝐄 - a medicine for sorrow. It is a place, person, or thing, which can aid in forgetting your pain and suffering. With two brothers, she has always lived in the same house. And always, they had the same neighbors. The same boy with whom she'd hang out everyday, from making sand castles to drawing in kindergarten to making the first-day-of-high-school-pictures to graduating. And to kisses.
