Shelly, an overweight teen that lacked self-confidence, only felt like she was truly herself through music. A summer of spontaneous adventures with her sister's boyfriend gave her a bit of newfound confidence and pushed her to be more willing to take risks. When the drummer next door gives her a mixed tape, she realizes that the riskiest thing for her is letting someone all the way into her life. It isn't long before they begin to exchange words they thought they'd never say out loud. With that, she is pulled from her guarded grounds and into a long, music-filled adventure where she gradually learns a thing or two about life, love, growing up, acceptance, and everything in between.

Now available in paperback! "I LOVE IT!" - CarniaHolmes "I'm going to break your nose, because I don't like your face," Carter said. She pointed to Zac. "I'm going to dislocate your other shoulder, just to make them even." She cocked her head and gave the main guy a sickly sweet smile. "I'm going to break your wrist, taking away your baseball career. And finally you, Finch," she said, looking to the last guy. "I'm going to bust your ankle because I don't like the way you walk." She slid her hands into her pockets. "Now, how does that sound to all of you? And please feel free to look amused, skeptical or patronizing at this point. I'll have all the more fun wiping the expressions off your faces." Carter Owens, daughter of a Secret Service agent, is trained to disassemble any weapon, any situation, and anyone. Her biting sarcasm and razor-sharp mind make her impossible to beat in a word fight and when talking doesn't work, she uses her fists. She attends Hamilton Prep, Washington D.C.'s most prestigious high school, where everyone is related to someone in power, except her. When Hamilton Prep receives a flood of new students, Carter's role as social outcast changes when she makes two unexpected friends. Friends who are hiding a secret. As Carter uncovers the truth, she confronts challenges she is unequipped to handle and finds herself in a dangerous situation. For a girl trained to see everything, Carter never saw this coming.
