The founding principle amongst the Pogues: no secrets. Unless, of course, you are sleeping with one. Three weeks ago, Parker Kate Routledge had everything she could ever want: four hundred million dollars worth of gold bars, a brand-new hot tub, and JJ Maybank naked in her bed. It was too good to last, and in a matter of days, it all came crashing down. The gold is gone. Her father was murdered. Her twin brother is dead. Now, Parker spends her days huddled in bed and her nights with the stars, wishing for John B to come back. She has truly lost everything -- her family, her fortune, and herself. JJ Maybank never expected his own words to bite him. For constantly saying he had "nothing to lose," he sure lost a lot. His best friend died, and now he watches the girl he loves slowly slip through his fingers. The light has gone from his favorite brown and blue eyes, and it's killing him. With a hole in his chest and Parker fading fast, JJ fights to keep himself and Parker afloat while keeping it quiet that he and Parker had sunk under the covers. When an unexpected message comes through, the Pogues are on another mission -- one important enough to get Parker out of bed and back on her feet. With fresh charges, more treasure, and a rapidly blossoming romance lying ahead for the teens, it's time for Parker and JJ to decide what they are...and how to keep a secret from their nosy friends.

Natalie Porter and Jackson Genrette come from different worlds. Natalie might be a Pogue hustling to support her family, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know how to have a good time. Right now, she's too busy surviving and living. Jackson has never had to worry about survival. As the golden boy of a powerful Kildare family, he's spent his life chasing adrenaline and pushing limits, knowing his last name will always bail him out. Four years ago, their paths crossed in the worst way-Natalie lost a job she couldn't afford to lose, and she's sure Jackson is the reason why. Now, he's back, fresh off a reckless mistake that should've cost him everything. Instead, thanks to his family's money, all he's facing is community service. And somehow, that community service brings him right back to Natalie. They've never gotten along. They don't plan to start now. But when you spend enough time with someone you hate, sometimes you realize hate isn't the only thing burning between you.

Promises? Broken. Laws? Broken. Rules against macking a fellow Pogue? Somehow not broken. The only thing Parker Kate Routledge loves more than pushing boundaries is pushing her twin brother's buttons. And what better way than to flirt with his dangerously sexy and completely off-limits best friend? She's read enough dirty books to know what to say. What she doesn't know is how JJ always has the perfect response capable of toying with her mind. Nine years ago, JJ Maybank promised to stay away from his best friend's twin sister. And for good reason. Parker is more than gorgeous; she is incredibly smart and witty, while JJ is -- not. As much as JJ tells himself to stay away, he cannot help but turn into a shameless flirt whenever she enters a room. Parker might like that it drives John B mad, but JJ likes that it turns her cheeks pink. As the friend group's summer takes a crazy turn, Parker and JJ find themselves doing more than pretending to break the rules. The two are then left wondering what's real, what's fake, and how fast John B would kill them if they ended up together.

And no one in all of North Carolina was a greater master of complicating things than JJ Maybank and his gang of oddball buddies, whom Lora hated so much.
