Zoey Castro is the wallflower of Asheville High. She's just another girl who doesn't live up to her parent's expectations, another girl who wishes she was perfect and fashionable like cheer leader Adira Scott. Zoey's not a loner, she's the kind of girl that likes to stay under the radar, with her only friend, Gage Prince. But her anonymity and privacy aren't about to last. When she starts dating football quarterback Eathan Harker, she thinks life is sweet. Besides Gage starting to act weird and the usual teenager stuff, she's doing great. When tragedy strikes the small town of Asheville, North Carolina, life isn't so sweet anymore. Zoey's newly discovered limelight is putting her in the most danger of her life.

Crazy house parties, grungy motel rooms, unexpected make-out sessions, bad dancing, and a scandalous twist are just the beginning.
