(This is the prequel to There's a Thin Line Between Love and Hate. Do not read this until you've read that first, because there will be spoilers...) You've heard their stories before. You know what happened during their senior year. You know about Hunter and how Jordan's complained about Jesse countless times. But now it's time to find out what really happened during their first three and a half years of high school. Jordan and Jesse are enemies once again, and their lives are no longer threatened. What was it like all those years before they went to Camp Kingston? Join them for their freshman, sophomore, junior, and beginning of senior year as they fight and bicker once again.

Ivy is a poor, misunderstood girl who isn't afraid to stick up for herself. The Lost Boys are four wealthy boys that are used to getting whatever they want. Mix them together, and the results could be disastrous. Neverland Academy is an intimidating private school for wealthy teens only. This is the last place Ivy wants to go to school, but it's either a snooty school with snobby kids or a military school with a bunch of troublemakers. Ivy is lucky enough to go to the school on a scholarship, but that doesn't mean that she or the other students are happy about it. With her almost fearless outer persona, her true fragile personality hidden, she catches The Lost Boys' attentions right away, and she isn't sure if that's a good thing. She's about to find out how tough she really isn't.
