Ocean Calloway is the golden girl of Richman High, an elite school known for its excelling students and the fun-yet-challenging atmosphere in it. With her stunning ocean eyes, her impeccable ivory complexion, her pastel lips that are as soft as roses, and her wavy blonde hair to top it all off, it's no wonder that many boys want her caring heart. It's her junior year, and she plans to focus and improve on her studies while also having a pretty decent social life. She is absolutely satisfied with her closely-knit group of friends, and it seems as if nothing can tear them apart.
And that's the moment she meets Damien Devereaux, a boy who screams danger, cigarettes, and leather jackets. As cliché as it sounds, he somehow manages to get into her head and occupy her thoughts for hours at a time. Soon, she discovers that not only does he have stunning looks, but he also has an empathetic, kind, and caring personality.
But when Damien arrives, strange things begin happening in the town that Ocean has known all her life. Scandals, affairs, deaths, and rumors begin occurring more rapidly, and she can't help but hate how trusting she is.
As everything starts to shatter, Ocean has to learn an important life lesson in the harshest way possible: even salt looks like sugar.
