Skylar Simmons knows ambition is the only way out. Journalism. College. The future. She doesn't have time for secrets, distractions-or the new guy with the criminal record and too many shadows in his eyes. Hunter Pritchard doesn't want attention. Not from classmates, not from teachers, and especially not from the sharp-tongued girl who sees through him a little too easily. But fate-or maybe just a cruel teacher-pairs them together. And when a school trip puts thousands of miles between them and everything safe, Skylar begins to realize Hunter isn't just running from something. As miles stretch and masks slip, Skylar starts to question everything she thought she knew-about Hunter, about herself, and about the line between right and wrong. Sometimes the path forward isn't straight. Sometimes it's unexpected, winding... and changes everything.
