Isabelle Harrington has lived in Hawkins her whole life - long enough to know that nothing in this town stays quiet for long. She's the girl everyone warns you about: fast on her bike, sharp with her words, and never afraid to throw the first punch. Then Max Mayfield shows up - fiery hair, skateboard in hand, and an attitude that matches Isabelle's own. She's new, stubborn, and completely impossible to ignore. What starts as clashing egos slowly turns into something else - something Isabelle didn't see coming. Because Max isn't just another challenge to win; she's the one person who makes Hawkins feel like something worth staying for. But trouble has always followed Isabelle - and this time, it might take more than a fight to keep what she loves safe.
