“GROWING UP, WE WERE told stories of the skinwalkers. ‘Yee naaldlooshi’ translates to ‘with it, he goes on all fours’; the term ‘pure evil’ would have sufficed. A skinwalker was a man who gave up his last shred of humanity to be a creature of the night, to slink in the shadows as a coyote or fox and torment the rest of the tribes. They were shape shifters made of venom and evil. I had never thought of the skinwalkers, from the age of nine until my seventeenth year, in which I came face to face with one." Brielle Evers never questioned her lifestyle. Growing up in an isolated community, where teenage girls are married to men twenty years their senior and books are forbidden, she takes comfort in the small things: her sister’s upcoming wedding, her Saturday visits to the local town, and the strange, beautiful boy behind the counter of Gas’N’Go. But then, things unravel. Brielle’s world shatters before she can find bearings; her world is a slow, cruel death. Her only escape seems to be the strange, beautiful boy who speaks a mystical language, and soon, even that isn’t enough. Facing a new kind of evil, Brielle knows one thing: she has to escape. For good. (IM NOT AN EXPERT ON CULTS OR THE NAVAJO BUT I JUST MASHED THEM TOGETHER IDEK HOW THIS WILL WORK BUT BEAR WITH ME)

If it weren't for the secret list of crazy things she'd like to do, she'd be less interesting than a piece of stale bread. Harvey Lockwell is a God. An unattainable God. Livvie's content with staring Harvey down from afar and wiping the drool from her chin, until everything changes when she's forced to have actual contact with him during their after-school tutoring seasons. In a cringe-worthy chain of events, Livvie's boring life turns into a catastrophic mess when Harvey ends up finding her secret list. Things take another turn for the worse when Livvie accidentally runs away from home while on a high-speed chase straddled to the back of Harvey's motorcycle. Not only does she have to endure the embarrassment from being caught with a bucket list at the ripe age of seventeen that includes losing her virginity, but she also has to figure out exactly what Harvey ended up doing that caused them to be chased out of town by a band of criminals and how to fix it. Crazy house parties, grungy motel rooms, unexpected make-out sessions, bad dancing, and a scandalous twist are just the beginning. For a girl who's never done anything remotely exciting, Livvie Jefferson is in for some pretty bad things.

Stranded in a dangerous city that holds shocking surprises, Cacee is forced to depend on Jess for her very survival. Now, as Cacee watches Jess pick pockets and win knife fights with equal ease, she realizes the boy she thought she knew never existed. As they struggle to stay alive long enough to return home, Cacee must decide: Can a thief and a liar be trusted with the biggest thing he's ever stolen--her heart.
