Lily Delcroix has just begun her junior year, and it's not what she expected it to be. Charlie Delinger is the lying sociopath who won't stop until he gets with Lily, Brandon Arrington is the mentally unstable new kid who goes through thick and thin to seem normal, and Mikey Luce is the best friend who somehow happens to know everything about everyone. When Lily is lied to, and her dignity is crushed, she vows revenge, making sure nothing will get in her way. But when Lily gets a boyfriend, the stakes have changed, and getting revenge won't be as easy, or as moral, anymore. She must decide whether to keep on trudging the path of vengeance or drop it all so she can truly be with her boyfriend.
