In a small Indiana town, a teenage girl hasn't been seen for months, and her brother Reed is sketchy on the details. But seventeen-year-old Mayuri Krishnan doesn't know any of this-not yet. For her, Reed is the boy of her daydreams, the name she scribbles in her notebook, and the starring role of her online cliche mafia romance. When he stumbles upon her secrets, she first thinks Reed's claims to be from an Albanian crime family are lies intended to trick her. Soon, Mayuri begins to question the thin line between fiction and reality. Threats are made, daggers are drawn, and near-misses come too close for comfort. With Reed's promise to keep her safe from those who want her dead, and her growing belief that he may be lying about it all, Mayuri chooses to keep the dangerous part of her life a secret from her cop father. Things come to a head when she teams up with Reed's ex-girlfriend and best friend to uncover his secrets, leading to a night when a knife and a gun determine all their futures. She didn't mean to run away from a murder. She didn't have a choice. Abducted by someone she trusted, Mayuri must use all her wiles to save herself. The true lies that drew Reed and Mayuri together-and the false truths they discover along the way-could drive them apart forever.

"Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men, couldn't put Humpty together again." And so it begins. Second-in-command to the queen bee Chloe Collins, Erin Sanders seems to have it all: The looks, the wits, almost the entire student body falling down on her feet, and the attitude-or so she thought. In comes Chloe and Erin's alternate-and rivalry-duo: The devastatingly handsome, athletic and rebellious Kent O'Conell and Jason Matthews. Chloe hated Kent ever since he insulted her bright yellow dress by saying that it looked like someone had vomited on her-on the first day of kindergarten. So it's only practical that Erin hated Jason as well. But what happens when one day, Chloe and Kent shockingly announces to the whole student body about their secret relationship-all of which Erin never knew about. Forced to seek refuge to the only other person who's been left out cold by this secret, Erin and Jason work together to get to the bottom of their best friends' mystery, and may end up tearing down their own reputations in the process. Historical field trips. Spying at the carnival. One very big exploding burrito. Secret classroom meetings. And two very, very stubborn teenagers who will stop at nothing to get everything back to normal-but is normal even worth it? Because when Humpty Dumpty thought that he could climb the wall, he fell. And with these two, it's only a matter of time before they all fall down.

"You'll be fine?" I shrieked. "You just got freaking stabbed! You're letting out more blood than a girl on her period! You are not going to be fine! I have to call the police. No wait, I have to call an ambulance! Oh my God, why didn't I think of that before? Stupid, Genevi-" "Stop talking!" he growled, turning away. I wrung my hands together in panic, trying to calm myself down. "I can take care of this, kitten. Leave me alone. It's just a small wound. Not like I haven't been stabbed before." he muttered the last part. "What?!" "Leave." he growled. I stared at him, unable to close my mouth. I had never seen someone get stabbed before. Heck, I had never seen someone get into a fight before. Ever. The only violence I had experienced was in movies. It was unfortunate for me that I found out how I would react in a danger situation like this. And by react, I mean completely flip the hell out. *LANGUAGE WARNING*
