Yet there's no world where they could be together. Now Artemis is back from university, in the house, in the pool, in her mind―invading all Claudia's safe spaces, and behaving hot and cold towards her.

As Claudia and Artemis realize that they connect completely in so many ways, they won't let anything―family obligations, social prejudices or personal history―keep them apart.
