It's been four years since graduation. College began, then college ended. Clay is heading back to Crestmont after four years away so he can visit his parents. Tyler messages the old Liberty High group chat, telling everyone to come back because he needs them. Nobody kept in touch after they all went their separate ways for college, no one except Clay and Jessica... who have both avoided the treacherous town of Crestmont. Will Clay cope being back in the town where his brother, friend and first love all died? Will it tip him over the edge going back to his home where Justin no longer lives? 

Tyler, Alex, Zach, Ani, Charlie and Jessica are all worried about Clay returning... because Clay is the one who lost everything in his life at one point. Will Tyler's problem be enough to distract everyone, especially Clay, from the haunted memories that lay all around town?

In which two ex-step-siblings reconnect after just about blowing up their family the first time around... Three years ago, Maddie fell hard for Jacob Isaacs, the smartest boy in her school. The only problem was this: Her dad had quite literally gotten engaged to his mother. The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom. She hasn't seen her family in ages and intends to keep things that way. Jacob, on the other hand, has worked hard to accomplish everything he's ever dreamed of. He's stayed close to home, done exceptionally well at school, and is adored by just about everyone who meets him. There's only one problem: There's a Maddie-shaped hole where his heart used to be. But no matter how hard he tries to reach out and find her, he can't. She won't let him. He let her down and gave up on them when she needed him most. And she's not ready to forgive and forget. But then Maddie's dad passes and she's forced to come home for his funeral. It should be a quick visit. She intends to make it one. But Jacob has other plans. He let his girl slip through his fingers once and he won't let that happen again. So now he has to convince her to give him one more chance. After all, they're not related to each other anymore.

Being siblings with Clay has been the best experience ever. Except he wasn't really my brother. I have a fucked up family in England, my mom died in my last year of middle school and my dad, he's abusive. Clays parents happily took me in there arms and decided to set me on a plane from England to America to take care of me. Well until my dad had fixed himself I was able to go back. But I don't want to go back to him ever again. Sophomore year was when I first started, and it's When Hannah first started. And now, and now Hannah's ended her years but I'm still here. I'm still here rotting away in misery without her. Except her being gone isn't the complete reason of my misery. It's more my skin chilled everytime I imagine his harsh hands forcing me.... But just a cherry on top. The full circle to my complete and utter misery. It's the guy. The guy every girl wants to fall in love with. But he was always mine first.
