!! NOT RATED MATURE FOR SMUT REASONS !!
After the tragic loss of her sister, Jacqueline Peterson thought she'd left her small Colorado town-and her tangled past-behind for good. Staying with her aunt in Washington felt like a fresh start, a chance to move on and forget. Unfortunately, her parents have other plans. They're forcing her to return home to finish high school with her childhood friends, hoping for one last chance for her to say goodbye.
But when Jackie steps back into her old life after five years away, everything has changed. Two of her childhood best friends are now inseparable from Liam Brown, the charming troublemaker who was once her biggest headache, and her other best friend has morphed into someone unrecognizable, which leaves Jackie feeling more like an outsider than ever.
As she navigates the minefield of complicated relationships and high school drama, Jackie finds herself drawn to Liam, no matter how hard she tries to resist. He insists that he's different now and just wants a second chance to prove himself, but can she really trust a boy who used to make her life as miserable as she made his?
