Over coffee and a mountain, they rekindle their High School not-so-romance, and start anew. When faced with challenges their love stands tall, but what can push it so hard that it breaks, and burns, and ends? -"I swear I'm not drunk, but when I'm with you, I feel like I am."

Darcy is afraid of human contact, and the only reason seems to stem from the mysterious bruises covering her body. Lucas is an old man in a teenagers body, raising himself and constantly needing to take care of others--especially his mom. Jonathan feels alone even when he's with people, everyday sinking further into his own sea of despair. Ella just wants to be like everyone else, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't escape who she is. Isaac is so far in the closet that he can't even see the door, which is good, because if he could, he would only see his fathers judgmental face. Jordan can't control himself- no matter how many pills he takes or how hard he focuses- he just can't stay calm. Clare can't bare to be anything less than perfect, which is no surprise considering the amount of pressure her parents and sister put on her shoulders. Ryleigh knows that people are whispering about her in the halls, even though they don't have to-- she can't hear them. <><><> Each of these teenagers feel as if there is something wrong with them, based on how they are treated by society. They feel beaten and broken, like they will never be free. By happenstance, they all meet. Slowly the misfit eight grow together and become friends, suddenly more focused on helping each other fight their insecurities and problems than worrying about their own. Can the misfits find a place where they feel they can be themselves, or will they continue to be outcasts, forever beaten and broken? *warning* This story covers trigger issues such as abuse, bulimia, cutting, bullying (cyber and otherwise), anxiety, alcohol and substance abuse, suicide mention, and bipolar disease.

Excerpt The highly anticipated start of a new romantic suspense series from the beloved, USA Today bestselling author of Ten Tiny Breaths. Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survives—but she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to “Jane Doe” for another day, the woman renames herself “Water” for the tiny, hidden marking on her body—the only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbor, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why won’t Ginny let him step foot on her property? And why does Water feel she recognizes him? Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesn’t know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that she’ll stay so much safer—and happier—that way. And that’s why, as hard as it is, he needs to keep his distance. Because getting too close could flood her with realities better left buried. The trouble is, water always seems to find its way to the surface.

It's early summer, and in a small community on the central Jersey Shore, a black car screeches to a halt outside the Wright Bros grocery. Danny looks up from where he's working at the carwash to see the driver rifle out of the car and chase a girl rushing into the store. For some reason-fate perhaps or intuition-he decides to cross the lot and investigate. When he meets Mary, there is a great deal Danny doesn't know, but he certainly knows that he's been struck. For it's like the keys to an old car had been dropped into his hands and is about to start the engine that will forever alter the outcome of their lives. Some Place Better Than Here is a gritty, unflinching look at how we define family and come to grips with loss. It's about growing up in a small town, following your dreams, and mapping out the uneven ground that often lays between love, friendship, and sexual awakening.

When the quiet girl in Clayton Hugh's chemistry class comes knocking on his door at five in the morning barely covered up in her little pajamas, inattentive, and drooling like crazy, he has no choice but to take her inside. But once Lucy Walker wakes up inside a room she has never seen before wearing an over-sized t-shirt and gym shorts, you can imagine the pure panic setting in her. The subtle addition of Clayton entering the room shirtless doesn't help much either. After three years of fawning over him, leave it up to her sleepwalking to finally get Clayton Hugh to notice her.
