Julia King is barely surviving the jungle that is New York City, working a job that she hates while struggling to pay off her student debt, so she is not at all overjoyed when she receives a spot on jury duty. Especially when she has to sit through a trial where the defendants are all rich college douches who depend on their parents for everything.
Maxwell 'Max' Campbell is one of the rich college douches. After a drunken night, he and his Columbia frat brothers are quickly put on trial. When their actions are questioned, a jury must come in to choose one of the two outcomes and one of these jury members isn't too happy to be there.
What happens when they meet things start unexpectedly? What happens to the trial? What happens to their lives?

With a distant family, the grief of losing her dad, and the scars left behind from a cheating ex, she believes there's nothing good life has to offer. Aside from her two best friends, the girls who pulled her out of the loneliness she's lived in for so long. To Alyssa, they feel like the only people she has left. One late morning, she lands herself in detention, where she finds herself next to her brother's best friend. The boy who doesn't even remember her, and the one who won't stop staring at her. He's nothing but cocky, smug, and way too good at making her uncomfortable. But detention leads to conversations, and conversations lead to things she never saw coming. ****** This book has been mostly rewritten. If you previously started reading, I would suggest going back so it makes sense. **Contains swearing. Touches on topics such as eating disorders, sexual themes, and abuse.** Not edited.
